THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TRUSTING ME BRO I COULD CRYYYYYYYYYYYYY 😭😭😭😭😭I hope it does not disappoint... REAL THOUGH about the drama you mentioned in your tags, that's exactly how I felt reading If My Wife Becomes An Elementary School Student's title, for example, but I'm told it's wholesome☠️☠️I would love to hear about the one you were thinking of though!
I WILL BEAR IT IN MIND TO PREPARE FOR ARACHTAGON WHENEVER THE TIME COMES... totally understandable to get frustrated with RNG on top of that, RPGs can be so evil 😭😭😭still, again, I'm glad you're back to it! Also totally understandable to want to play on the original consoles... NOTHING beats the experience... the availability of playthroughs nowadays is nice for sure to be able to experience the series without investing that much!
I would LOVE to see more Normal interactions between Ichiban and Jo for real😭they have so much potential for silly moments... ever-thankful for your content and I Can't Say Enough always looking forward to whatever you might have in store :] whether it's that or something else :]
I EXPECT YOU'RE DONE WITH EPISODE EIGHT NOW AT MINIMUM SO I WILL JUST SAY the Ohashi arc and Episode Ø [<- why the hell is ep eight called this] are peak to me I am soooo glad you enjoyed the arc... LOVE the OST too, Yugo Kanno is a legend. HOWEVER all the songs on it are titled words that start with S and P so you get titles like Scarlet Pussy 😭
OH BUT SPEAKING OF SP'S WACKASS STRUCTURE pleeeeeaaaase consider watching SP: The Motion Picture and SP: The Motion Picture: The Final Episode after you finish the show... there is A Cliffhanger and those are the true conclusions to the story... and SP Final In Specific is what blew my nuts clean off...
STOPPP NO THAT'S EXACTLY THE DRAMA I WAS TALKING ABOUT BUT I DIDNT WANNA SNITCH ON MYSELF 😭😭 it really is a cute show..... im ngl it has some of my fave tsutsumi scenes/performances like it TRULY blew my expectations out of the water. i just feel SOOO awkward about it cause.. with a title like That and a premise Like That i wouldnt blame a single person for giving me a weird ass look so i generally try not to talk about it ☠️ its my guilty treat so to speak and i cant even tell if im making it sound worse than it actually is (╯x╰ )
in any case... i finished Security Police SO !!! onto After The Rain for me when it comes to Media Thats Awkward To Talk About But Please Believe Me When I Say Its Not What You're Thinking :]
LMAO PLEASE like... so long as you have the right equipment you don't even really have to do much extra grinding by the time you get to him... it truly is just hoping RNG doesnt dick you over ☠️ i've been cruising through the game since tho ! i dont expect myself to get into anymore awkward blockades anytime soon and then i can finally say i finished this game (●ˇ∀ˇ●)
THANK YA THANK YA it aint much but its honest work..... i have been real dead this week tho and i always get scared if ill draw again durin periods like this- i HOPE to come up with something soon cause there really is an untapped well of Good Stuff to be explored :]]
THE SOUND DESIGN OF SP WAS REALLY GOOD IN GENERAL THOUGH LIKE not just music wise was it good but i really loved hos inoue's migraines gave me migraines... immersion... but also just knowing when to keep things dead silent (like finding nishijima's corpse) did SOOO well to put emphasis.. the weird as hell names are just bonus points by now like. Gotta Let Bro Have SOMETHING As A Thank You For The Sound Design (╯▽╰ ;;) OH BUT IM GLAD THERE'S MOVIE TIE-INS CAUSE THE LAST SCENE HAD ME CONCERNICUS LIKE 👁️👁️? i was only able to find the first 2010 movie on the site i usually go to but its somethin...

Finally Getting Help (prt. 10)
Mastterpost
A/N: Thank you all for the well wishes about my dog. Unfortunately he didn't make it and pass away Tuesday morning in the vet's office. I was able to get some writing done but I don't have the energy to edit. Let me know if you find any mistakes.
-----
Jason: hey, thanks for the gun and the tech, it's really cool.
Danny: new phone who dis 😝
Jason: I hope you haven't given too many people guns in the last couple days.
Danny: no I haven't, thanks for texting me Jason. Have you got a chance to try the gun?
Jason: not on anything moving, I've been doing some target practice to get a feel for it though. Looking forward to when I can test it on Vlad.
Danny: aww are you going to avenge my honor 🥺
Jason: if you want me too. I'll bring you his head if you want me too.
Danny: 🥰 you're so sweet. I wouldn't say no to seeing him suffer for what he's done but don't get yourself in any trouble okay? And if you do call me right away. I'll come rescue you 😘
Jason: hey I'm the one offering to protect you! 
Danny: we can protect each other. And fight each other, can you come spar again soon?
Jason: I wouldn't call that sparring, more like brawling.
Danny: eh potato potato, do you want to come fight me again?
Jason: if demon brat won't kill me for it, sure. Can I take you out for dinner afterwards? I have some questions
Danny: It's a date! Just tell me when
Jason: Day after tomorrow? I have some work to take care of first.
Danny: Sounds great! And it is a date right? You don't mind that I'm going to have kids?
Jason: the kids aren't a deal breaker I promise but let's not jump the gun okay? We're going to be family through B so we don't want this to blow up in our faces. Let's hang out, take it slow, see how it goes. You need to be careful about who you let into your life now anyway, you can't just let anyone around you and the babies.
Danny: don't tell me what to do 😠 but you're right. I'm bad about rushing into things. I'm still looking forward to it.
Danny: By the way Jazz uploaded the power point she made about Liminals and Ghosts to the bat’s server thing. You have access to that right? You should read that before we meet and I can fill in the gaps.
Jason: Sounds good, I’ll have a look at it and I’m looking forward to it too. I'll be there at 5 so we can spar before dinner. Don't forget to warn B and your guard dog.
Danny: Damian is a good kid. I'll let them know.
Danny stared at his new phone Tim had given him with apprehension. The chat with Jason had gone very well, and Danny was glad he reached out but there were other people he really needed to reach out to and he was… frankly scared. Sam and Tucker were his best friends and had always been there for him but they both had tempers. Would they be mad that he hadn’t told them he was pregnant? Would they be upset he had left Amity and wasn’t planning on coming back?
He needed to reach out though, the longer he waited the harder it would be to talk to them, and things wouldn’t stay calm as they were now. Vlad would be back to cause trouble again and even though the JLD had control of the portal but he was sure his rogues would find their way through eventually. Vlad had his own portal anyway, and Danny wouldn’t put it past him to open it just to annoy Danny. Maybe try and weaken him a little so Vlad could swoop in and pick him off.
Today was quiet, he needed to take this chance. He sighed and got up off the edge of his bed where he was sitting and ducked out of his room. He didn’t want to do this alone, so he wasn’t surprised when he found himself in the library where Jazz was studying. 
He sat down across from her and reached across, laying his hand, palm up on the table. Without looking up from her book she reached over and placed her hand in his, giving it a gentle squeeze. He smiled at her and took a deep breath before putting on his earbuds and sending a message in the group chat.
Danny: When you guys are ready can we call?
Jazz phone went off too and she checked it, smiled at Danny, and then silenced the chat and went back to her book. She didn’t need to be part of this call but at least she knew what he was doing. 
Sam: Yes, let me just grab Tuck. He’s playing Doomed.
Danny took a deep breath and put down his phone while he waited for them to call and tried not to panic.
When the phone buzzed he jumped and reached for it, joining the call quickly. 
“Hey guys,” He said, awkwardly, waving with the hand that wasn’t holding the phone.
“Hey yourself! What the heck happened Danny?! Basically the whole town joined in in chasing Vlad when we found out what he did but why did we have to find out on tv?! Why didn’t you tell us?!” Sam said, but at least she just seemed stressed, not actually angry.
“I’m sorry guys,” Danny said, wincing a little when he heard Tucker sniffling a little. “I hadn’t told anyone yet. I hadn’t even fully accepted it yet honestly.
“I still wasn’t ready to talk about it, bur Cass is really good at reading people's body language and I guess she clocked that I was carrying them by how I kept unconsciously touching my stomach. When she asked me about it it sorta broke through my denial and I broke down which started the ball rolling on… all this,” He said with a vague gesture.”
“All this is right!The justice league really brought the hammer down on Amity. They’re dismantling the GIW and really pissed at the government and basically all the adults in the town for letting this happen. And they arrested your parents!” Sam said sounding almost excited.
“Sam! That was really insensitive! They’re still his parents, what if he didn’t know!?” Tucker broke in furiously. 
“No it’s alright I knew, Jazz told me. She’s here with me,” He said squeezing her hand though she wasn’t paying attention to the call.
“Okaaay so where is Here?” Tucker asked warily. 
“Ya are you safe? We haven’t seen you since all this went down! Are you really with Bruce Wayne?” Sam asked sounding wary.
“Yes I am. He’s got a foster license and since his kids were the one that found out what was going on it just made sense that I’d stay here.”
“And he’s Not another Fruitloop?” Sam asked warily. “You need to be careful with these rich people you know? They’re basically all crazy!”
“Sam you’re rich,” Danny pointed out, amused. 
“Ya, and? My point stands!”
“Fair enough,” Danny laughed. “But no, I did some snooping the first night I was here and it seems okay. And since he’s got close ties to the Justice League he was able to get the help we really needed, and he says he might be able to help me meet Martian Manhunter!”
“Don’t fanboy out too bad,” Tucker teased him.
“Oh ya? And what if I helped you meet Tim Drake? Would you not be just as bad,” Danny accused Tucker.
“Touche,” Tucker said. “Could you though?”
“I mean maybe? He’s my foster brother now and he seems cool. You two are my best friends, if I’m going to stay I’m sure you could come visit me and meet all of them.” 
“Are you really going to stay there though? I mean once the GIW and everything is cleared out you could stay with either of us. I know my parents aren’t your biggest fans but I know they’d let you stay,” Sam said sounding worried. 
“And I know my family doesn't have a ton of money but they adore you, we’d make it work,” Tucker added looking worried.
“No, guys I really appreciate the offer but… I don’t want to come back to Amity. The Justice League said they shut down the portal and I really need a fresh start I think. I think I’d rather stay here. Jazz too, she’s gonna study at Gotham U and intern at Arkham,” He said. She looked up at the mention of her name and gave him a small smile.
“I’m sorry, you guys are my best friends and I’ll miss you, but there are too many… memories in Amity you know?”
“Ya I get that,” Sam said, looking sad and distant.
“We can still call, and play Doomed together, and visit on breaks!” Tucker said, his chipper tone sounding a little forced. “We’re going to say friends!” He insisted and Danny smiled.
“Of course we will Tuck,” He promised. They might grow apart with the distance between them, but he hoped not, they really were his best friends.
“Ya, my parents will probably be thrilled about this development and want me to come over all the time. They love the Waynes,” Sam chuckled though her optimism also seemed a bit forced. Of course she was more of a pessimist, she probably thought they would drift apart, but knew Danny needed them right now. 
“Soo what’s been going on in Amity since I left?” Danny asked, letting them ramble about the drama, the rumours, and the bullshit that was the bullies and everyone in the school sudden;y pretending they cared about Danny soooo much.
After they finished telling him about it there were a few beats of silence and Danny was just about to suggest they hang up when Sam spoke up again. 
“So, what actually happened with Vlad? If you don’t want to talk about it that’s okay but…”
“No, it’s okay. It’s not what- what you’d think. It’s superhero bullshit really. When I wouldn’t be his son he decided to try and clone me, you met Dani with an I right? She was one of the clones. But he didn’t know I was trans, and my DNA got all fucked up in the portal so none of the clones were stable. I have no idea how many he tried to make that died. But when I found out it was because he had lied to Dani and told her he needed me to stabilize her clone brothers. It was a batch of ten.
“But he lied, he didn’t actually care about stabilizing them, he was going to let them all die. I was only able to save the two that were most stable and only by taking their cores into myself. So I’m not normal pregnant, I’m ghost pregnant. 
What is my life huh?” He finished, chuckling awkwardly. 
“Oh fuck,” Sam said her shoulders slumping a little even as her expression went through a range of emotions. “That’s better in a way but still a whole different type of fucked up! I hope they catch him soon.”
“I hope so too but I don’t think they will,” Danny said with a shrug. “Not before he tries something else. I’m not lucky enough to be able to just move past this,” He said with a bitter little laugh.
“Well, we can still hope. And even if he does cause trouble you have more allies now! You’ve been able to handle everything else he’s thrown at you basically on your own, with the Justice League behind you I know there’s nothing you can’t handle. I mean, Vlad is kind of pathetic anyway,” Tucker encouraged making Danny smile. 
“Ya, you’re right, I’m sure it’ll be fine. Thanks guys,” he said fondly. 
“Of course dude! We’re here for you!” Tucker said.
“It’s really good to hear from you too. Don’t be a stranger okay?” Sam said, a bit worried.
“Of course not, I’ll keep you posted I promise.” Danny assured before they said their goodbyes and he hung up. 
He put down his phone and leaned back with a sigh, closing his eyes for a moment. Next to him Jazz chuckled and there was a soft snap as she closed her book. 
“You did well little brother,” She told him, getting up from her seat she moved behind him and rested her hands on his shoulders.
“How do you know? You weren’t listening.”
“No, but you reached out to your friends and had an honest conversation which isn’t easy. You did well,” She reiterated, squeezing his shoulders.
“Well thanks Jazz. I hope that they’re right that we won’t lose touch, and I’ll be able to handle whatever Vlad does,” He grumbled. 
“I’m sure we will,” Jazz promised. “And either way there’s no point in worrying about it now. Has Jason texted you yet?” She asked, giving Danny the excuse he needed to change the subject and launch into his more petty worries about the upcoming date as she sat back down to listen.

¡leclerc-s speaks! any ideas on who should be the face-claim for natalia's dad because after this week i would just find it absolutely hilarious if it was pedro pascal because the pictures of him and charles just look like charles is enamoured with him. but any other ideas besides pedro?? now, on a serious note, i will forever hate mclaren for tainting oscar's first win, and he also deserved a proper celebration on the podium, so in my delulu land charles and max were on the podium with him. before anyone asks, yes it does hurt to write logan in this story knowing what's coming but there's no way i'm going to write him off after the williams thing.
¡disclaimer! this is in no way making assumptions about the people involved in this story, this is all fake. it is a fanfiction please don't take any of what is said seriously. this is all for entertainment purposes and as a creative outlet for me. enjoy!

~Jade Leech~
Tumblr media
Jade was on his way to meet up with you for the picnic date you two had planned together when he had gotten a sudden text from his parents telling him that they needed to have a long chat.
He wasn't too worried about such a text. It may be ominous to some but it was a typical text when his parents wanted to discuss their 'business' with him. They weren't going to just text him about what was actually going on. It would be quite embarrassing if someone were to look at his phone and find out about his family's business, wouldn't it?
So, he sent you a text explaining that he may be a few minutes late to your date. He smiled at your quick response. He was glad you were so kind and understanding.
Deciding to hide behind a tree a little way off the path he had been walking on, he called his parents. The conversation started normally, a casual hello and asking how they've been but he could hear the nervousness in his mother's voice.
"Mother, is something wrong?" he asked concerned. His mother was quiet for a moment before saying, "Well, me and your father have made a decision and we know you may not like it but, its for the family," she said.
"What do you mean?" Jade asked. His mother seemed to have a hard time finding the right words before she sighed and decided to be blunt about what was going on.
As her words hit his ears he froze. The words, "arranged marriage," echoed within his mind. He was frozen to the spot, unable to move or speak as his heart felt like it stopped beating.
This... This has to be a misunderstanding.
He tried to regain some composure before responding to his parents. He told them how he can't get married because he's already in a relationship. He can't just drop you and go get married to someone he doesn't even know!
Jade tried his best to remain calm, "I'm afraid I can't accept as I'm already in a relationship with a very lovely person and I have no plans on breaking up with them for someone I don't know."
"I'm afraid you don't have a choice in the matter," his father said on the line before his mother quickly interrupted, "We know that you're already in love dear and we're happy for you but sometimes things need to happen and-" Jade interrupted, "I understand. We'll talk more about it later I need to go," he said as he quickly ended the call.
He was shaking so bad he could barely stand. He tried taking some deep breaths to calm himself down. His phone suddenly vibrates and he looks down to see a text from you asking where he was. He smiled a little but as he goes to text you back, he suddenly feels something wet on his hand. Looking at his hand he sees what looks to be a droplet of water and he quickly touches his face, he's crying. He tries to quickly dry his eyes as he clears his throat to try and regain his composure.
He texts you that he's on his way and quickly heads back to the path he was walking. Eventually, he meets up with you and you both have a fun date together.
Jade won't tell you about what had happened. He tells himself that its better you don't know so that things don't get overcomplicated but in truth, it's because he's afraid of your reaction. Great Seven forbid you think he's actually in love with his wedding partner and decide to leave him. He can't let that happen. So, he keeps quiet and does what he does best. He pretends. He pretends that everything is fine and that there's absolutely nothing to worry about.
Later it would turn out that the marriage wasn't something he would be able to easily escape out of. Everything had been made official for the wedding and now all he could do was wait for the day to come. Of course, he had asked his parents why this was happening in the first place and he should've expected the answer but it still came as a surprise to him. Money and reputation. Of course, none of it had to do with love, in fact, they don't expect him to love his new partner at all. Sure, it would be great but it's not expected.
Great Seven help him. Jade understands why their doing this but even so, it still hurts. He almost feels like an object his parents are selling away.
He really tried his best to change his parents' minds but, in the end, he won't go against his parent's wishes. He won't run away from this even though he really wants to. Well, it's not like he really could. His parents and their connections would find him rather quickly either way.
While Jade wasn't certain about his future, there was one thing he was certain about. There was absolutely no way that he was going to break up with you. You've brought him so much joy and you've made him feel loved in a way no one else ever has.
The wedding date creeps nearer and while he grows nervous on the inside, he continues pretending that everything's fine. He truly hates lying to you but it was for the best. Sometimes you get very close to figuring out there's something wrong but he quickly distracts you so you won't catch on.
Eventually, he tells you that he has to go back home to visit his parents for a while. Unbeknownst to you, he's getting married.
And again, this is where Jade does what he does best. Pretending to at least like the bride is an easy feat. He has no problems dancing or even kissing them. However, that's as far as his masquerade goes. He'll pretend the reason as to why he doesn't want to get any more intimate with the bride is that he's just simply nervous and luckily, no one ever pushes him on the topic.
Overall, the wedding goes smoothly. It's a formal affair with very little excitement which leaves Jade quite bored at the end of it.
If he's made to live in the same home as the bride, he's very good at sneaking out unnoticed. He'll play the loving husband role as long as he needs to convince his new partner to not get suspicious of him. But as soon as he can, he's getting out of there to return to you. While he can't stay too far from his new home for too long, he'll do as much as he can to see you.
Even now Jade won't tell you of his marriage and if you notice that he doesn't hang out with you as often as he used to, he'll just say that work has been keeping him busy and change the topic. If he had the choice, he'd never tell you about his arranged marriage but he knows that there might be a day where he will have to.
And if you ever find out about his arranged marriage he'll sit down with you and explain the situation to you. He's afraid of your reaction but he really doesn't like lying to you.
He's just so worried that if you ever found out he's married you'll want to leave him and he loves you far too much to let that happen.
Jade will try to communicate with his parents. Perhaps he only needs to be married to this person for a certain amount of time? That would be ideal as then all he would have to do is wait and then he can leave without too much fuss.
But, if he's meant to be permanently married to them well... He may have to make a few decisions.
Jade is not against using much more darker methods to escape this marriage he's been forced into. He knows quite a lot about plants and there's some that would be very helpful in this kind of situation. Ideally, he wouldn't have to turn to such methods but, well, sometimes things need to happen.
Once his new partner is gone, he'll return to you as quickly as possible and who knows, perhaps this event is enough to encourage him to take your relationship to the next level.

~Floyd Leech~
Tumblr media
Floyd was lounging around your apartment as he waited for you to come back from work.
He laid back on the couch as the TV droned on in the background. He was incredibly bored and started to space out, getting lost within his own mind when his phone's ringtone startled him from his trance.
He clumsily grabbed the phone off the table next to him, "Who is it?" he asked irritated. His tone quickly changed from irritated to excited as he heard his parent's voice on the phone.
The conversation was typical. His parents asking him how he's been and him reassuring them, especially his mom, that he's alright. But he could tell that something was bothering them, "Hey ma, is something going on?" concern laced in his voice. His mother seemed hesitant to respond, "Well, me and your father have put a lot of thought into this decision and we know that you may not like it but we have good reason-" Floyd interrupted, "Just say it mama." His mother sighed and told him what had happened.
As much as Floyd loves unexpected surprises this was probably the worst surprise he's ever gotten in his entire life.
"What?!" he yelled into the phone as he bolted up from the couch. The words, "arranged marriage," was loud in his mind.
"You're joking right?" he asked, desperately hoping that this was some kind of weird joke but they denied that it was a joke and they were completely serious. He started to panic. He couldn't tell if he wanted to laugh, cry, or scream. He was becoming overwhelmed as the situation became more real by the minute.
He tried to stay calm, taking deep breaths as he argued with his parents. "I'm already in a relationship! I'm not just gonna drop 'em for someone I don't know or even care about," Floyd said slightly panicking.
His father spoke calmly through the phone, "Floyd, you should know that sometimes we have to do things we don't like or want to do. That's how this business works and unfortunately, we sometimes have to leave people behind."
Floyd laughed bitterly, "This is so fucking stupid. Are you seriously telling me to break up with them?"
His father responded, his tone cold, "We don't care how you do it, just get it done. We don't need to make this more complicated then it needs to be."
Floyd ran his hand through his hair in disbelief, "No, no, no, I'm not doing that."
His father's voice was stern as he responded, "It doesn't matter if you want to do it or not. It's for the business, you'll understand later."
Floyd yelled into the phone, "You're really doing this to me?!" He couldn't keep calm anymore.
His mother spoke trying to calm him down, "Floyd please-"
Floyd interrupted yelling, "SHUT UP!" as he threw his phone full force into a nearby wall making a hole and shattering the screen.
Tears streamed down his face as his heart hammered in his chest. He couldn't calm himself down, he was beyond pissed. He grabbed a nearby chair and threw it in a random direction hearing something shatter. He couldn't stop himself. He grabbed anything nearby him and either threw it or slammed it into something else. He punched, threw, and tore whatever he could as he became blinded by his anger.
He didn't realize how long he was going at it until he heard you opening the front door to your apartment. He was breathing heavily as he sat himself on the now torn up couch.
He heard your gasp of surprise but didn't look at you, instead he hid his face in his hands.
"Floyd! What the hell happened?" you asked looking around at all the broken furniture.
He kept his face hidden in his hands as he mumbled out, "I'm sorry."
You sighed and sat down next to him on your now ruined couch. "Floyd-" you began but are quickly interrupted as he pulled you into a tight hug. As you awkwardly rub his back you feel something wet on your shoulder only to realize he was crying.
"What happened?" you ask him gently. He doesn't respond, instead he hugs you tighter as he silently cries into your shoulder.
After awhile, he pulls away from you rubbing his eyes, "AHHH- Shrimpy you won't belieeeeve it!" he says dramatically as he falls back on the couch, "My parents are tryin' to get me married to some idiot or whatever," he sniffles as he messes with the fabric on the couch.
"You're what?!" you yell in disbelief. "Wha- why?" Floyd shrugged, "Eh, I dunno. I'll ask em' later."
You look around at all the broken furniture, "I'm guessing that's what made you destroy my apartment?" Floyd sighed, "Yeah, I'll help fix it later."
You both fall quiet. You start to grow worried as you think about this marriage he's supposed to be in. You glance over at Floyd, "So, about that marriage thing..."
You're nervous as he sits up on the couch, "I'm not agreeing to it. It's just some stupid paper anyway. Stupid marriage keeping me trapped," Floyd grumbled out mostly to himself. You don't know why but his words made you feel a bit insecure, "Well if that's the case then in a way aren't I keeping you trapped?"
Floyd stared at you before letting out a small laugh, "Nah you ain't keeping me trapped Shrimpy. The difference between the marriage and our relationship is that I actually chose to be here with you and at least I can leave our relationship whenever I want."
"Hey!" you yelled incredulously, slapping him with a nearby pillow. Floyd laughed, "I never said I was goin' to leave!" You smiled, "Good because I don't know what I'd do without you."
Overtime, you can easily see the shift in Floyd's personality as he goes from his usual happy and cuddly self to irritable and barely seeing you at all. And when he does get the chance to see you, he cuddles you for hours on end before he disappears again.
Floyd really tried to stay with you but his parents had made their decision. He complains a lot to you about the whole situation telling you how he hates everyone and everything and how the only person he ever wants to marry is you. He guessed the money was too good to pass up and the thought left a bitter taste in his mouth. It made him feel like he was some object being sold and it pissed him off greatly.
Sooner than he'd like, the wedding date arrives and reluctantly he goes. He may hate his parents for this but he won't go against them. That doesn't mean he won't make things difficult for them and everyone else involved.
The wedding is a formal affair that leaves Floyd very bored. He wants nothing to do with his new partner but he can try to pretend to like them. He'll dance around with them but it's not his fault if his new bride almost gets their arm ripped out from it's socket. He'll even say his vows and kiss the bride even though it makes him want to throw up. But he'll do it for his parents and if it makes this whole event end faster then whatever, he'll do it.
If he's made to live in the same home as the bride, Floyd will almost never be home with them and if his family or his wife's family try dragging him back, he'll fight them the whole way there. Floyd makes it very clear to his new partner that he absolutely doesn't love them. There's only one person that he wants to spend the rest of his life with and it's you.
He doesn't get why anyone, especially the bride, would care about this marriage anyway. Both their families probably set them up for money reasons so why should Floyd care about it? If he could, he'd just say he doesn't give a shit and leave.
Floyd is more likely the one who'd kill their new partner. He absolutely can't stand being trapped and if he's supposed to spend the rest of his life with this person with no way out then he's gonna get irritated really quick.
He isn't heartless however, he knows that his new partner might share his feelings of irritation and that's why he'd much rather just get a divorce than go as far as to kill them.
But, sometimes we have to do things we don't really want to do.
Floyd will find a way back to you. Whether it be with clean hands and a bouquet of flowers to apologize for his absence or with bloody bruised knuckles and skin stuck in-between his teeth, he'll come back to you.
He may even decide to marry you as soon as he comes back! How cute! Besides, his parents can't force him into another marriage if he's taken, right?
Tumblr media
~Riddle Rosehearts~
Tumblr media
Riddle had met up with you in town to take a much-needed break from his job. Getting some fresh air was nice every now and then and it was a nice impromptu date for you two!
You both walked around the town picking up a few things here and there but mostly just spent your time window shopping. Until he suddenly got a call.
Riddle looked down at his phone. It's his mother. He really didn't want to talk to her right now but when you asked who was calling, he quickly tells you it's Trey.
"He's probably just checking in on me," Riddle awkwardly laughs before telling you that he'll be right back as he sneaks off to a more secluded area.
He walked into an empty alleyway. Looking down at the phone again, he grows nervous. He's hesitant to answer but nonetheless he does.
"Hello mother," he greets her with a steady voice. The conversation starts off normal. She asks him about his job and how he's doing. He tells her he's doing great but, the conversation becomes strange as she tells him that she's found him a new partner.
"What do you mean?" Riddle asks confused. "I mean I've found you a new partner and she's far better than the one you have now. She's a very lovely young lady, far more suitable for you," she says happily, "You both will be married soon so I expect you to be here when the date arrives."
Riddle was shocked. Is... this an arranged marriage? Is he being forced into marriage? He never thought his mother would do something like this to him. Not only that but she had the gall to insult you!
His mother continues speaking but he can barely pay attention as he's begins to panic. He needs to say something! He needs to convince her to not go through with it!
His voice is shaky as he tries to reason with his mom, "Mother, I am grateful but as you know I'm already in a relationship with someone and I love them very much. Why can't I marry them instead?"
"Them?" his mother asks snidely. "We both know you can't marry them." His mother continues on telling Riddle that you're unworthy of the Rosehearts name and how Riddle should only settle for the absolute best.
His heart breaks with each reason she gives. But as his heart breaks, his anger rises. How dare she say such things about you! You were one the best things to ever appear in Riddle's life and for her to imply that you weren't the absolute best made him flush red in anger.
However, before he could give her a piece of his mind, she said something that made him pause. "Besides, the marriage has already been finalized," his mother said nonchalantly.
A- already? No wait... So that means that...
Riddle is overcome with an immense feeling of dread as the realization dawns on him. It seems no matter what he does or says, he won't be able to change her mind...
"You... YOU CAN'T DO THIS!" he yells into the phone as he starts to cry.
His mother is silent for a moment before she speaks, her tone is cold as ice and it cuts him to the core, "How dare you talk back to me. After all I've done for you," she pauses for a moment before continuing, "I expect you to be here in the upcoming months for your wedding, understood?"
He swallows thickly, whatever courage he had shatters as he responds with a solemn, "Yes mother," before ending the call.
Bitter tears stream down his face as he falls to his knees. He hates himself for not having the courage to stand his ground against his mother, especially with how much was at risk. He thinks of all the things he could've said or done to possibly change her mind perhaps if he tried harder, he could have convinced her to let him marry you instead.
Riddle suddenly feels a hand on his shoulder. He turns only to see you looking down at him concerned, "Riddle, what's wrong?" you ask as you kneel down next to him.
He opens his mouth to speak but no words come out. He wants to tell you but he just- he can't.
Trying to wipe away his tears, he sniffles, "It's nothing. I just remembered something is all," he said. Riddle could tell you didn't believe him, it wasn't a good lie and he knew it but thankfully you didn't push it. Instead, you both continued on your impromptu date.
Riddle's personality change is obvious to everyone around him. He's absolutely miserable and it shows. His temper getting the better of him more often.
He really wishes he could run away from this. He wishes he had the strength to go against his mother. He wishes he was free of her control but it seems that no matter how hard he tries he can't seem to completely get rid of her.
He ends up overworking himself to distract himself from the reality he's in. He daydreams of grabbing your hand and running away from everyone and everything, far away from his mother. But he can't. He has to face reality whether he likes it or not.
Of course, you notice the way Riddle has changed and he appreciates the concern but he reassures you everything's fine, he's just been very busy.
When the date of the wedding arrives, Riddle is incredibly nervous but he won't run away. He'll try his best to like his new partner or at least pretend to. He may not genuinely love his new partner but he won't treat them harshly, they're a person too. It's only fair to treat them kindly after all, they were probably forced into this as well.
He may dance, laugh, and maybe even kiss his new partner but it doesn't feel the same as when he does those things with you. His heart belongs to you and by the end, he realizes that he misses you dearly.
Riddle will more than likely explain his situation to his new partner in hopes that they will be understanding and if they're kind enough, perhaps they'll let him stay with you.
However, if not then Riddle will try his best to see you when he can. He's not the best at sneaking out unseen but he manages.
At some point you'll figure out he's been married off or he'll go and tell you himself. He was far too afraid to tell you before, when the feelings of hurt were still fresh but while he might feel a bit better now, he's still hesitant to tell you about it. He's worried that now he's married you won't want to be with him anymore.
He hopes that one day he'll be able to get out of his marriage whether it be through divorce or by other means. He may even think of just running away and eloping with you.
Riddle swears that one day his mother will have no control over him. It may not be today or tomorrow but some day he'll run away with you and he'll never look back.

its ✨crisis time✨
sooo.... im aroace.
ive kinda known for a long time but i was in denial about it until recently (my internal thoughts are... complicated)
anyways, i want to come out to somebody, but im not sure who. i have a few options so im making a pro/con list (something i do a lot when making important decisions). yes, this is very personal but i need an outside opinion.
Option 1: lets call her Estelle (not her real name)
Pros:
younger sister
im really close to her (we tell each other almost everything)
bisexual, and i was one of the first people she told
already suspects that im aroace
Cons:
shes really pushy
shes gonna be weird about it and ask too many questions
she hasnt been as honest with me as she used to be, so im a little hesitant to open up to her
Option 2: Poppy (again, not her real name)
Pros:
shes my twin sister
we're really close
if i tell her, shes finally gonna stop asking me why i dont get crushes (and stop calling me a liar)
shes pretty understanding
she probably wont ask too many questions
she tells me everything about her life
i know she probably wont tell anyone
Cons:
shes straight (and doesnt know our other sister is bi) so she could be weird about it?
i might need to explain it to her bc shes less educated
Option 3: Clara
Pros:
lesbian, so she'll definetly understand
already knows what aroace means
we've been friend since kindergarten and we text a lot
Cons:
i know for a fact that she's not completely honest with me about her life
i dont know her as well as i thought i did :,(
basically idk... it would be kinda hard for me to be super honest with her, and i would feel weird about it
Option 4: put a PSA on my extended family group chat and then completely disappear (lock myself in my room) for like a week
Pros:
they'll all finally know
theyll stop calling me a liar when i say i dont have any crushes
i can stop feeling like im hiding something when im around them
i gotta come out sooner or later, right?
rip the band-aid off
if i come out first, my sister will probably feel more comfortable when she decides to come out
Cons:
theyre REALLY homophobic
they have extremely... old-fashioned views on stuff like families and gender roles etc
they definetly wont understand
theyll probably call me a heartless robot or smth
i'll probably end up as an outsider in my own family
they're gonna be super awkward around me
long story short: every bad thing that you could say to an aroace... thats what theyd say to me
So... if anyone has advice, i would love to hear it. this is literally eating me up inside, i really want to talk to someone but i dont know who. also (and this is a weird request) my dms are always open, if anyone's out there and wants to chat, please message me and we can work through our crisises together

Izumi Mitsuki: Me too! I felt like I was talking to Tamaki, feel free to be casual! 😆👍
Isumi Haruka: As if I were talking to Yotsuba!? lol
Isumi Haruka: No, that would be dangerous,  we always talk about who's gonna treat the other 💦
Momo: Sounds fun~~~~~~ I wanna go back to high school and play rock-paper-scissors to decide who buys juice at the store ‼‼😭.
Izumi Mitsuki: I know right! Then go buy sweet red-bean soup and play tricks on each other! 🤩
Isumi Haruka: Sounds like you guys were really enjoying your time
Isumi Haruka: Um, onto the main question! Please let me conduct a survey on what would be good for next week's Rabbimini after-party!

Izumi Mitsuki: Ooh~~!!
Izumi Mitsuki: You really thought this through! Thanks 😭 well, we still haven’t decided on anything yet!
Momo: Let's go to aaaall of them!! your big brother here will treat you guys to everything 😭‼
Isumi Haruka: Nah if we go to all of them our stomachs will be too bloated lol
Isumi Haruka: I wanted to do something for you two since you guys took me out for yakiniku after the shoot
Momo:Isn’t he so admirable? ol’ friend Mitsuki-san…
Izumi Mitsuki: What a lovable boy, ol’ friend Momo-san… (2)
Isumi Haruka: You're becoming grandpas lol
Momo:

Izumi Mitsuki:

Izumi Mitsuki: Alright then, do you have any recommendations among these choices?
Isumi Haruka: Erm...
Isumi Haruka: Panda-man. They look cute and I think it’d be fun
Isumi Haruka: I know it’s somewhat childish but...
Momo: It’s fine, I wanna chomp chomp it!! It's cute like Momo-chan, right!? 😍💕
Izumi Mitsuki: I might have seen it featured on TV! 😆 They have different panda faces on them right?
Isumi Haruka: 😉🥺😤
Isumi Haruka: ↑ Yeah! Like these
Isumi Haruka: People take pics of themselves making the same face as Panda man as a trend
Momo: Oh no we totally have to do a photoshoot too 🫰
Izumi Mitsuki: Now you sound like a gyaru lol
Momo: But it's been a while, so teach us how to take photos 🥺 waaggghhh
Isumi Haruka: I'll definitely teach you everything 🫰
Izumi Mitsuki: By the way, there's a photo of the three of you in our fridge! The one you, Iori and Tamaki took together 😆.
Isumi Haruka: Huh!? The fridge!?
Isumi Haruka: At the IDOLiSH7 dorm!?
Izumi Mitsuki: That's right! lolol you took it to commemorate getting a large king pudding stuffed plushie right?
Momo: Wait a minute!! You’re telling me you can see that incredibly cute picture if you go to the IDOLiSH7 dorm ⁉
Izumi Mitsuki: You sure can 👍
Momo: We'll bring a hot pot set and come visit you.
Izumi Mitsuki: We'll be waiting 👍
Isumi Haruka: Please stop, it's embarrassing lololol
Isumi Haruka: But I wonder if Izumi got mad when you stuck it there?
Isumi Haruka: Ah, I mean the little brother! Iori-kun
Izumi Mitsuki: It's confusing since we're both Izumi! 😂 
Izumi Mitsuki: He was a bit nervous about it, but Tamaki told us that you three worked really hard together to get that stuffed plushie, so he was really happy and wanted to stick it everywhere!
Izumi Mitsuki: He couldn't help but forgive him when he heard that ✨
Momo: That's so precious... I'll bring beer in bulk on top of that hot pot set.
Izumi Mitsuki: Thank you!? lololol
Isumi Haruka:
Tumblr media
Isumi Haruka: 
Tumblr media
Momo: Haruka sounds embarrassed! so cute (*σ・ω・。)σ
Izumi Mitsuki: This is youth :pudding cheer:
Isumi Haruka: I'm not embarrassed!!!
Momo: What other poses do you usually strike? (*σ・ω・。)σ
Isumi Haruka: Well, since Izumi doesn't pose so much, Yotsuba and I go extra to make it more exciting, or something...?
Izumi Mitsuki: more exciting lolol thank you!!
Iori smiles when he looks at the picture in the fridge, so I’m truly happy!
Isumi Haruka: Is that so
Isumi Haruka: Yotsuba said he's gonna be fine, but there were times when I wondered if I was pushing him too hard. I'm glad!
Momo: Mitsuki,,,,, I think I'm going to cry,,,,,,
Izumi Mitsuki: Me too,,,,, the big bro in me is so happy,,,,,
Isumi Haruka: p-please don't cry!!
Momo: 
Tumblr media
Isumi Haruka: I wanna take a picture with a pose that only three people can pull off! What do you think 😳
Izumi Mitsuki: Sounds good! I think we should pose like we did in Rabbimini, right?
Isumi Haruka: Maybe we could clasp our hands together in front of our chests and strike a kung fu pose? Like what we did at the start of Rabbimini! 🙏
Izumi Mitsuki: That's a good idea! I practiced a lot while watching videos! 😆
Momo: You could doodle something cute like ramen, that’d be adorable!! 😆💕
Isumi Haruka: I'll draw a panda too 🐼
Momo: That's the best!! What will you draw, Mitsuki!?
Izumi Mitsuki: Uh, something related to Rabbimini !? let me think
Izumi Mitsuki: A colander,,,?
Momo: a colander lololololololololol
Isumi Haruka: lolololololol
Izumi Mitsuki: I'll practice drawing it lololol
Momo: looking forward to seeing the result of your practice lolol
Momo: Momo-chan and Mitsuki are gonna drive and pick you up from school on the day of the shoot! ✨
Izumi Mitsuki: I’ll rabbitchat you when we get there! 😆
Isumi Haruka: You were serious about that?!?!
Isumi Haruka: I'm happy, but I think Izumi and Yotsuba will get jealous lol 🫣 🫣
Momo: I was serious about it, Harukacchi…!!
Izumi Mitsuki: They’ll definitely be jealous, so I’m gonna spoil them by making their favorite things before and after the outing 🥹 I'm sure both of them will understand that it’s to celebrate your hard work at the shooting!
Isumi Harukai: Um, just to be clear, please be careful not to stand out! Yotsuba told me that when Momo-san came the other day, the whole school was talking about it!
Momo: no way...!! I'm gonna park a little further away from the school so I won’t bother anyone.
Izumi Mitsuki: Let's put on a disguise so that we don't stand out!
Momo: 
Tumblr media
Izumi Mitsuki: 
Tumblr media
Isumi Haruka: I'm getting really excited for some reason..!
Momo: I'm glad! After the shoot, let's go to the arcade together when we’re less busy >u< I like that one game! The one where you kill zombies!
Isumi Haruka: Isn’t it great?
Isumi Haruka: I compete with Yotsuba in the high score board, so I'm good at it!
Momo: Huh that’s cool!! Haruka can really do anything >u<
Isumi Haruka: Hehehe
Mitsuki-san, is there something you’d like to do if we go together?
Izumi Mitsuki: Ah! Then, the crane game! I know a guy who’s gonna be over the moon if he gets a Kokona-chan or something 😆 you'll have to teach me all the tricks!
Isumi Haruka: Yes!! I'll take care of it 🙌
Momo: Then Mitsuki, give me tips on how to draw a colander ;P✨
Izumi Mitsuki: I don’t think there are any tricks to that lololol i’ll think about it lolol
Isumi Haruka: lolololol
In the original text, Haruka sends a casual text to the group chat, then corrects his tone by adding “ですか” (desu ka) in a separate message. Momo and mitsuki tease him about it by sending casual messages then following it up with “ですか”. This kind of polite speech doesn’t exist in English, so this was the closest way to convey the OG conversation’s tone
This is another joke that can’t be properly conveyed in English without further context, Momo and Mitsuki start adding “や” (ya) at the end of their messages which is a form of speech under a style called “yakuwarigo”, used in manga/anime (amongst other forms of media) to indicate age. The “ya” in this case is added to elderly characters’ speech, hence why I chose to add the “ol’ man” so that Haruka’s comment makes sense.

Boo!!! Have a curse on ye!!!
To breakth the spell, name thou mutuals and what you like about them!!!
(not all of them. Minimum 5)
Melmel do you hate me. What if I forget someone. They're gonna hate me forever. I'm literally going to go through my mutuals list and have to do this. FEAR. PLEASE I DON'T MEAN TO FORGET ANYONE I SWEAR I LIKE ALL OF YOU OR ELSE WE WOULDN'T BE MUTUALS
1. Marigolds Buddies, 2. Discord Gang, 3. Blue Lock Gang
1. @noname-nonartist Hi you're the menace to society and thorn in my side (affectionate) for the past three years. Your art is stunning and you're an awesome person to talk to and it's always a chill great time when I get to brainrot with you over ShuAke. Even if I'm not into Project Sekai it's hilarious seeing how into it you are and I'm happy for you
@himi-wiz Do I really need to tell you what I like about you? You already know my heart inside out, there's really not much else to say. I love you to the moon and back. Drink water, Fool.
@sunflowerswithtea MY TEA BUDDY you're the best friend I've had in our academic suffering together. I'm so proud of you, you never give up and try your hardest in everything. You're one of the actual nicest people I know :> I love waking up to your absolute spam of texts on discord even if we don't share the same fandoms atm! I know for a fact that you're going to drag me back into MLB with you though. FEAR.
2.
@rainingstorms1220 Total bean. Take care of yourself more. Your art is stunning, you have some amazing stories and I can't wait to see more of them. Despite all your downs you've never given up, always held your head high, and you're one of the most dedicated, passionate people I know. You're welcome for the hermitcraft brainrot <3 Love you lots Stormy
@chibihobbitlore MARIAAAA MY BELOVED Your art is inspirationally beautiful!! You're so positive every time I talk to you, one of the nicest people ever and it's always such a nice time hanging out with you. Bullying Elder with you is one of my favourite past times :DDDD You're not on Tumblr much but seeing you on discord always makes me go "!!! HI MARI ILY" hehehehe
@eldestofdragon You. You are most definitely not on Tumblr much, part of why I'm tagging you here. Little shit. You're witty, always pull a laugh out of me every time we talk, and I love hearing you ramble about your DnD campaigns and lore filled stories. You're not positive, but you're not negative either, which is right up my alley when I need someone to talk to. <3 I'll see you on discord later today! Worry less, sleep more.
@a-mel-tomelts Menace to society x2. Do I need to tell you too, why I love you? You're witty, happy, excitable and so passionate about the stuff you love. Despite your ups and downs every time I get to chat to you about our shared interests and experiences it's always a great time. Hange to my Levi, Sumi to my Akechi. Nothing else says it better! :D You already know why I love you, twat, ask me on discord if you want details again
3.
@someprettyname THE most chaotic person I know. Passionate, determined, steadfast, and really proud of what you stand for. It's really nice to see that. Every time I open tumblr and see like 30 texts in my message box I'm like "oh no, what's happened to nami this time," and no matter what I see, I like chatting with you when I get the chance <3 Seeing you in my notifs always makes me happy
@blue-thief I swear sometimes it's like we're telepathic with how often we have the same views on things. It's always great chatting chaos or media analysis with you. It's so easy to fall into conversation with you, and seeing you be so certain in your skin sometimes is honestly really nice. You care about your friends so much it's so wholesome. I hope your exam went okay!! I hope I can support you in any way you need from me :3 I'M STILL WAITING ON THAT ASK I SENT TO BE ANSWERED, BEN /j
@zendersenders Fellow Rinsagi enjoyer, again shares a lot of the same views as me so it's always a super fun conversation to have. Fanfic buddy, I have almost dragged you into Persona hell with me. Whenever I see you in my notifications it's like "oh hey, zender's here!! hi!! :DDDD" little dopamine hit. You're a total sweetheart. Except when you decide to terrorise me with Mel, then not so much smh
@galaxynajma Fellow birb enjoyer, has the same media taste as I do which is great to see on my dash, one of the most lovely people on this damned website. One of the rare other KaiSae enjoyers. Talking to Najma is like.. a peaceful chat on a picnic blanket, with a clear sky and cool lemonade in our hands. It's like a moment of reprieve amongst all the chaos of the Blue Lock community. I love these moments dearly :>
@getosugurusbangs Plushie Menace #1. A great person to talk to, even with all the chaos that you dump into my inbox lmao. One of the few people here that understands my Persona references!! I haven't interacted you with much outside of that, but the little interaction we've had has been absolutely lovely. We seem to have the same media taste again, although I'm not too surprised considering everything else hehehe. Your art is absolutely beautiful!! It has a uniquely Eli flavour to it that I always love seeing on my dash :D
I got Kitkat, Elle, and Chen on discord so that this post doesn't get ridiculously long 😭 I should've done the discord people on discord too but it's too late now I'm too far into this.
Good lord. I hope I haven't forgotten anyone? If I have, my deepest apologies, send me a DM or a reply or something and I'll reply immediately or else I will be a very very sad Lune
MEL YOU LITTLE SHIT JUST YOU WAIT UNTIL I POST THIS AND FINALLY LOG BACK ONTO DISCORD TO RIP INTO YOU ABOUT THIS

Hello :))) So, i was today years old when i learned you had a girlfriend (if i’m not mistaken) and somehow it means a lot to me as you’re one of my comfort blog and that i’ve been struggling with my own sexuality for a while. (I hope it does not come off as weird this is really not my intention 😭) So i was wondering if you would mind sharing how you two met as i love hearing about queer love stories coming from real people and not only in fiction (somehow i need to be reminded that yes, it can happen in real life too for me??) If and only if you’re comfortable doing so of course!!!
aww hi anon! first of all, thank you so much for the kind words--i'm so glad to hear that my blog is a source of comfort for you. and also, re: your sexuality--i'm sending you so much love! i know how scary and how overwhelming it can be to still be figuring out your sexuality and navigating your own queerness, so please remember to have some compassion for yourself, and please know that you're not alone.
as for my girlfriend: yes! i do in fact have one, and we've been together for a little over a year and a half now. we'll be going on two years pretty soon, which is all very exciting!
as for how we met: it's all a pretty funny story, because we actually met while we were both in college. and also right during that first covid summer too. we started off as long-distance friends, bonding our love for star wars and writing.
anyways, i totally had a crush on her, although i was trying to play it off most of the time. the fact that we lived in separate cities was another factor too, of course.
fast forward to a few years later, when we've both graduated college. i've just started my first year of law school; she's working at this point. we're still texting and calling each other a bit, and then i tell her, oh yeah, i'm going out on a date with this guy.
and just like something from a kdrama or a movie or something, this ridiculous, lovely woman texts me as i'm boarding the bus for my date. her text? hey, i dreamed about you last night! we were sitting on a park bench together and we were holding hands :)
and of course, at this point, i still have a disastrous crush on her (hence why i spent a lot of time dating all these random guys in my junior and senior year of college, because i was like i gotta just get over this), but anon, that text message was the other shoe dropping on my brain. i decided right then and there that enough is enough, i'm gonna call her tomorrow and tell her i like her, so she can't just say stuff like that anymore because i don't think i can take it anymore.
so we arrange to have a phone call the next day, and we chat, and of course, true to form, i have to have some liquid courage on me (peach soju, btw . . . but turns out, if you're jittery enough, you don't even feel the alcohol, because i still remember every detail). anyways, at some point, we're chatting, and then i blurt out, "i like you."
and she goes, "i like you too."
and i went, "no, i mean i like you more than a friend. as in i like you."
and she goes, "uh, yeah. i like you to do. the feeling's mutual."
and of course, i didn't know what to say to that. like, i swear i was just like "??? what?" because the thing is, i had this whole speech planned out in my head--something like i like you, and you don't like me like that, so i'm sorry that this is awkward, and i can just take care of my own feelings, but i just really needed to say that so that we're both on the same page--
so to say i was pretty stunned would be an understatement! so cue a lot of laughter and flustering, and fast forward to today, with her living with me for the summer (because of course, she'll need to go back to work and i'll have to go back to school once august hits), and we talk about how many pets we're going to have one day (she has this hobby of sending me videos of increasingly exotic animals and going "??? so can we have this as a pet? :)"), and we've talked about what our wedding is going to be like (as well as what our wedding will not be like) . . .
this is just a whole lot of details, but as you might be the first one to ask me about this lovely person on this webbed site, of course i'm going to ramble and gush--but anon, to give you some hope here, queer love is a beautiful thing and it certainly happens.
personally, i would love to go back in time and find my sad high school self and go "hey, hang in there, because you're gonna be lucky enough to finally fall in love with someone who's kind and warm and patient and loving, and she's going to encourage you to be a better person, and she's going to make friends with literally every single stranger on the street (much to your partial exasperation and partial wonder), and she's going to be really bad at staying hydrated, and she's going to take so many photographs of everything, and she's going to make friendship bracelets on your bed, and she's going to almost fight the secretary at a dentist's office for you (while you tug at her sleeve and go come on, i'm fine, let's just go), and she's going to recite and write poetry that you keep both on your walls and also in your head, and her grandma is going to show you the dorkiest photos she has of this silly, lovely, beautiful person who you love."
so: all that to say, anon, i hope that gave you some hope! it's such a long journey for some of us, but i promise that queer love is out there and healthily alive, and yeah, sometimes they're just as good (or even better) than those that you find in fiction :)

My Everything #2
(Shoyo Hinata)
[Artwork is not mine! Credit to seranlynx]
Requested by: @l1l14i
Word Count: 3,275
Warnings and/or Pre-Notes:
Cyber bullying (?)
Slight fighting
Weed (Fun fact, as of 2023 weed is still illegal in Japan but we're going to ignore that)
Alcohol
———————————————————————
I looked at the comments. I know Akaashi told me not to, but I did anyway, and it was the dumbest thing I could have done. Since looking, my eyes have been constantly scrolling over the thousands of comments.
     They look so cute!
     She's so lucky! I would kill to have @Hinata._.Shoyo on me like that!
     Do you think this is the mystery girlfriend?
     No wonder #21 never shuts up about her. I wouldn't either!
      Omg, there's a new hottest OTP in the volleyball world. @Bokuto.Koutaro and @Akaashi_Keiji better watch out
     Despite all the good comments praising the glimpse of our relationship, all the compliments thirsting over Shoyo and me, even the upright vail sexual things people wish to do to one or both of us, all I can focus on is the bad comments.
     Ew, that's the mystery girlfriend? I excepted... better
     She's chubby, for an athlete's girlfriend
     No wonder @Hinata._.Shoyo is so dedicated to his sport. If I had to go home to that I'd drown myself in volleyball too
     Gold digger if I've ever seen one
     @MSBY_Black_Jackal maybe get #21's eyes checked??? That is nowhere near the hottest woman alive. Even from the glanced photo, I can see a million needed improvements.
     What the hell is up with her hair???
     My hand jumps up to my head, tugging on my towel hat so it comes unraveling. Right after, my fingers run through my hair, working out some of the wet knots I haven't paid attention to since getting out of the shower. Shoyo likes my hair... I think. He likes it, right?
I haven't talked to Shoyo about the post yet. We were alone long enough for him to drop his bags before he and a few other Jackals went down to the hotel gym for their workout sessions. With me being alone in the room it's given me plenty of time to check the comments, unpack, check the comments, shave, check the comments, shower, and check the comments.
Since he was in such a rush to meet up with the team, he left his phone behind. That has given me time to ponder going on his phone and scrolling through what he's been tagged in that I haven't seen yet. I know the password, it's my birthday, and it's not like Shoyo would care. It still feels wrong doing it without asking, even if I know he doesn't mind.
     The girls' - and Akaashi's - group chat has been dinging every ten minutes or so. They've all been telling me to not look or reply to any of the comments, asking what room we're in so someone can sit with me until the boys get back, telling me I'm beautiful, that Shoyo loves me more than anything in this world.
     I've been ignoring their texts - and the occasional call - as much as I can, barely sparing them a glance. I know Shoyo loves me, that he thinks I'm beautiful. I also know he's a man and that he finds other girls beautiful too.
     I've looked at the profiles of some of the commenters, mostly the ones commenting on my weight or openly slutting themselves out to my boyfriend. A lot of them have been supermodel pretty. Supermodel skinny too. I keep trying to remind myself that those photos aren't natural. That they are photoshopped or filtered. That my photo with Shoyo hasn't been touched up. It was snapped and posted.
The hotel door beeps the click of the door opening following the approved key swipe. "Ya, ya, I'll ask the Mrs. I'll let you know. Ya, see you soon," Shoyo rambles to one of his teammates, slowly sliding his way into the room. "Hey baby," he greets, tone instantly softening and his face relaxing at the sight of me.
     "Hi," I snip back, casting my eyes to my phone again, rolling over a comment made of a line of throw-up emojis and the words 'His humbleness isn't the only thing he took from the Karasuno dirt fields'. Maybe I'm reading into it but I'm pretty sure they're trying to call me hick without actually saying it.
Shoyo shifts his body weight, eyes glancing around the room before they're set on me again. "So, Atsumu and some of the other guys and gals are going down to the bar around seven. He invited us to join... you want to go?"
"No."
Concern flickers across his face, quickly drowned out by a smile. "Alright," Shoyo answers, shrugging his shoulders before making his way toward me. "A night in with you and a movie sounds good too," he tries, kicking his shoes off before crawling onto the bed.
I spare him a glance before fixating on the post again. 'How the hell did THAT bag @Hinata._.Shoyo???' rolls across the screen, adding another drop of emotion to the puddle collecting in my chest.
"You're my everything," Shoyo coos, nuzzling his nose against my neck, the tips of his hair tickling my skin. "You know that, right?" He asks, pressing a gentle kiss to my jaw.
"Ya."
"Do you?" He asks again, arching up so he can lock his sight with my eyes, his nose brushing against mine. "You've been... I don't know. Not you since we've gotten here. Bokuto said Akaashi is worried about you," he slowly pushes out, his fingertips on my thigh, toying with the end of the towel I'm still wrapped in.
"I'm fine, Shoyo," I mutter, moving my legs away from him. When his hand grips me tighter instead of falling off, I push it off myself.
Sadness flickers in his soft eyes for a moment, quickly replaced with concern. "Is this about the picture of us?" Shoyo asks, using his grip on my leg to pull me back to him. He snatches my phone from me, glancing at it for a moment before throwing it on the bed.
     "You know about it?" I ask, a bit dumbfounded. There's no way he knows about it. There's no way he knows about it and hasn't told me about it let alone talked to me about it. I haven't talked to him about it because I haven't had the chance to yet. Not because I just haven't.
     "Of course I do. I've known about it since, I don't know, less than five minutes after it was posted. I was tagged in it and I've gotten a new mention in the comments every ten seconds."
     I sit frozen, staring at my confused boyfriend. He's an idiot, right? Like, legally an idiot. He has to be. "What the fuck, Shoyo?" I mutter, my words coming out slow but heavily.
     "I didn't want you to worry about it. I figured - "
     "You figured what? If you didn't say anything about it I wouldn't find out about it?"
     Sho stays quiet for a few moments, a loose smile on his lips as his eyes wander across my face. "I figured sooner or later the public was going to get a picture of us. You look sexy as hell in the one they got, so why freak out about it?"
     "Have you not read the comments?"
     "I have," he hums, head tumbling downward so his lips can crash against my bare shoulders. "'Damn number twenty-one is lucky'. 'If that's the type of girlfriend volleyball players have, sign me up'. 'No wonder Hinata never shuts up about her'. 'Shit man, if my girlfriend looked like that I'd praise her with every breath I had to offer'. 'If I had a girl like that, I'd make her my everything too'," he quotes, little kisses being littered across any bare inch of skin he can get to.
     "Those aren't the comments I'm talking about," I whisper, quickly losing hold of my anger, on my sadness.
     "Baby," he whispers in my ear, nuzzling the side of my face as his hands rub my thighs, his tight grip closing on my flesh every few seconds. "You are my everything, do you know what that means? It means to me you're perfect. I love your hair, I love how it catches the sun, I love how it feels, how it smells, how it looks."
     "I love your curves, I love the dips and twists and every inch of your body. You could be a hundred pounds heavier or a hundred pounds lighter and I'd still love the shape of you."
     Shoyo's kisses fall toward my neck. He nudges at my chin until I tip my head backward, giving him more space to run his lips over. "I love every birthmark, every scar, every inch of your skin. I love your smile, your eyes, your soul, your laugh. Every second possible I spend thinking of you. Thinking of this gorgeous body, of your loving personality."
     His praises are dripping with his admiration of me, drips that fall into the puddle in my chest, slowly but surely eating away at all the negativity that's been building up. "If you ever left me, if you ever decided we were done, that would be it for me. I would never be with another person again. I'd simply play volleyball until I couldn't anymore and then spend the rest of my days wallowing in Rio, waiting for you to want me again."
     "You're my everything, baby. You've been my everything since the first day I saw you since my eyes fell on the pissy girl with braids in her hair that tried fighting the frappuccino machine because it wouldn't work. You are my everything. You know that. I make sure you know that, and if you don't, I need you to tell me you don't. Tell me you don't feel like my everything if that's what's happening. Tell me so I can remind you, so I can fix it, do you understand?"
     "Ya, I understand," I murmur, my mind foggy from the mix of Shoyo's praises and the feeling of his lips leaving my skin on fire.
     "Good," he whispers against my jaw, a line of kisses leading up to the delicate kiss laid on my lips. "You are my everything, baby. Without you, I'm not even sure I can breathe. I am lucky to have you in my life, and I am thankful for every day I wake up next to you."
     My eyes sting with the threat of tears, a threat that's fulfilled quickly. "Oh, baby," Shoyo coos, kisses instant back in action to brush away the water leaking from my eyes. "Don't cry. I hate seeing you cry."
     Giggles slowly spill out, mixing with my tears as I replay the last line of his love speech. "Sho? What the hell are you going to put in your vows that could top that?"
     "I'll just reuse it," he teases, his laughter easily mixing with mine. "Now, drinks with the gals and the guys?"
     "Drinks with the gals and the guys," I agree, stealing another kiss from him.
                      ————————————
Shoyo's arm is around my shoulders, keeping me pressed close to him as he coats my hair in kisses. With every ding of a passing floor, my heart seems to beat faster. I'm always nervous going out in public with my boyfriend, but with the recent shining light of the public on me, I'm more nervous than usual. Pair that with the fact I'm sure every hotel in Shizuoka is swimming with fans and you have a disaster waiting to happen.
     I don't like the attention or the million cameras or the public in general, which is why Sho usually goes to these things alone and I show up the day of the game. At least for away games. Home games are easier to deal with. But, he begged me to come with him this time so I gave in. That was a dumb decision.
"You're fine, baby. Paparazzi and such aren't allowed on private property. Fans are all we'll have to deal with and most of the time they're too star-struck to notice much. You'll slip into the bar as easy as usual." Blind optimism at its finest, but I can't help but hope that he's right.
     When the final ding comes, Shoyo tugs my hood up for me, helping to hide some of myself. His arm falls too, his fingers instantly finding mine and sliding themselves in place. My heart races with the sound of the elevator doors opening, my stomach turning in tone with the two noises.
     Instantly, a million clicks and cellphone flashes go off, the crowd of fans yelling his last name, asking a million questions. Some are simple questions asking for photos or about the game tomorrow, others are centered toward the recent photo of us. Shoyo simply smiles, stepping forward to block me from the crowd as he answers some of the simpler questions.
     Slowly, he leads me out of the elevator, trying his best to inch around the crowd toward the bar. Within seconds, Bokuto appears situating himself next to Shoyo and in front of me too. "Hey, hey, hey. Don't forget Hinata isn't the only spiker on the team," the bigger man booms, glancing behind himself to send me a smile.
     The two beefy men in front of me continue the slow and stretched-out walk to the bar, the three of us shuffling like penguins to get to the entrance. Sadly, the bar has an open construct; no door, just an open wall with a velvet 'fence' to close it off for the Jackals to use tonight.
     "Hey," Akaashi greets, nodding at the worker to unclip the makeshift gate.
     "Hey," I greet back, stepping through before glancing at Shoyo. Bokuto and him are still taking pictures and answering questions, only two or three steps away from me. "I don't like coming to these things."
     Akaashi shrugs, watching our goofballs with me. "It's a lot at first but over time you get used to it. Just don't do anything stupid, like have dry sex in a car," he teases, a soft grin on his face as he spares me a glance. "And you'll be fine."
     "Ya, that was pretty dumb of us."
     That gets a laugh out of him, and a bigger smile. "If it makes you feel any better, Kotaro's and my first 'scandal' happened because someone got a photo of me helping him button his shirt as we left a restaurant bathroom. He spilled red wine on his shirt so I helped him clean it but of course, the media turned it into us having a quickie." That does help, a lot more than I thought it would.
     "Shit happens. Scandals happen or get fabricated. There's no point hiding in the dark forever because that just leaves more for the imagination. The hard part is done. The world has proof of you. Hot ass proof." That makes me giggle, a few soft chuckles leaving Akaashi as well. "Hey, even the coach's wife said she'd leave him for you."
     "She did not," I manage to get out, more laughter mixing with my words.
     "She did too, which you would know if you answered any of our texts."
     "I was busy wallowing in sadness and self-pity."
     Akaashi shrugs again, his grin falling from his face, his usual resting bitch face back on. "That happens too. Half the world will love you and the other half will hate you regardless of what you say or what photos they get of you. Just got to roll with it."
     "Did you smoke a blunt before coming down here?" All the partners of the players have different ways of dealing with the stress of publicity they and their player have. Some smoke, some use weed like Akaashi, and some just enjoy their partner's hefty wallets and use retail as a means to cope. I'm not sure what I'm going to use to cope yet, but at the moment a few hits of what Akaashi is on sounds like a nice and quick way to chill out.
     "I had an edible. I don't have anymore so you're going to have to be sober or drink."
     "Drinking it is then," I mutter, letting my eyes scan over the growing group of Jackals paying attention to their fans right outside the bar.
     Akaashi and I stand inside the entrance, still blocked from the fans' view by the team members. If this is how people act at the hotel, the gym is going to be insane tomorrow.
"Alright, alright, I promised my everything a drink so I got to go guys. I hope to see you all tomorrow," Shoyo's voice rises above the chaos, the ginger starting to back up from the crowd. Being cut off only makes the crowd louder, the rest of the members quickly follow to avoid the uproar.
As soon as he's through the cloth fence, Shoyo's arms are around me, burying me into himself as he drags me further into the bar. My head pops out from his arms when I'm no longer forced into movement. "There's my everything," he coos, pecking my lips as he loosens his hold.
We - and the rest of the team - are tucked away in the furthest and darkest corner of the bar, safe away from the crowd still at the entrance. Greetings are thrown around, a few "you two looked sexy in your picture" mixed in. Everyone answered with a "damn right" by Sho.
Shoyo's hands are on me at all times, even as we sit with everyone else. Hand on my thigh, in my hair, toying with my fingers, anyway he can touch me he does. "You're beautiful," he whispers, his hand jumping up to push my hood off.
     "Thank you," I answer, taking his hand in mine before resting it in my lap. He's antsy, like always, but more so than usual since he's still worked up from my meltdown. Having his hands wandering over my body isn't going to help much with our scandal.
His movements stall for a moment, his brain ticking at what to do before his soft touches are replaced with butterfly kisses. My cheeks heat up more with every kiss he litters my skin with. "Honey, we're with people," I murmur, trying to shrug him off.
"So?" He whines, shaking his hand out of mine so he can wrap his arms around my waist, pulling both me and the chair closer to him. "You're my everything. With so many people around, so many people having proof you exist, I want to remind everyone that you are my everything. Always have been, always will be."
     "Gross," one of the older members tease, fake gagging until his wife smacks him upside the head, paired with a whispered lecture and an ear pull.
     Shoyo giggles, nuzzling my head until I turn it enough for him to kiss me. Slowly I let myself give into the gentle kiss, letting my adoring boyfriend melt away all the stress of the day. "My beautiful, perfect everything," he sighs, pecking my lips once more before pulling away from me. "Anyway, we should get a round of shots to drink to our future victory over EJP."
     The team cheers at the offer, one of the members flagging down a server to take the order. A smile plays on Shoyo's face, his hand enveloping mine again to raise it, kisses being peppered across my knuckles. It's hard to believe just an hour ago I was convinced I was nothing to him. Even in moments where his focus is on the team, on volleyball, I'm still at the forefront of his mind. I'm still his everything.

on canon
So here's the deal:
No work of fiction has a single interpretation. There are as many interpretations, pretty much, as there are people, and that's because the job of fiction is to tell us about ourselves—about others too, yes, and about the world around us, yes. But primarily, a work of fiction is a collaboration between the author and the reader/viewer/player/etc.
What does that mean, exactly? Surely the creator is the one who gets to say what a character is? Well, no.
Let's take a character (call him... idk, something nice and generic, like "Boro"). The creator wrote Boro with certain ideas in mind. But Boro doesn't really come to life until he reaches the viewer—when the creator's concept interacts with the viewer, to create something new. And there are a lot of viewers.
A work of fiction is as much what the viewer sees as it is what the creator intended. It's what we all bring to it, as much as it's what the creator wrote. Art is not dictated; it's not a straitjacket, with rules and diktats that must never be broken. Art is released into the world. Because art is nothing without an audience.
What Boro (or his frenemy Ben, or their close lookalikes Bight and Bell, or any characters or canon you want to name) are is as much about how you think of them, and what you see, and what you personally bring to them, as they are about their dialogue and visuals and the events of their plot.
on fanfiction
This means there is really no "bad" fanfiction. We all create and write to our own vision—we draw on our ideas of the original work, on the inspiration we personally drew from it. We take the things that spoke to us—that moved us, or obsessed us, or that we just found funny—and we create things we love, using the original work as a source. Plus, we're all learning our art—some of us have been writing for twenty years, and others have just started. That kid writing today will write the epics of tomorrow. So don't bite the newbies.
Sometimes our shared universes overlap, and that's great! Sometimes nobody else agrees, which can be kind of lonely—but doesn't make your vision somehow less valid. We are not painting by numbers; we're creating a palimpsest of slightly different (or very different) visions.
Why start fights because someone else doesn't share your artistic vision? Make your own thing that you like. We're a flock of birds singing, not the Borg.
digression: so why do you spend so much time talking about canon
I'm more of a researcher than I'm a writer. And what became clear to me very early on was just how much I'd missed on my playthrough of P5R—and just how well the story hung together, when you scratched a little below the surface. Those things interest me. I don't like the feeling that I misunderstood things, and I like unearthing connections, obscure text chats that are easy to miss, cockeyed correspondences that don't necessarily mean anything, and so on.
For me, canon is our shared baseline. It's the light outside before it hits our retinas, before we get into the detail of whether the blue I see is really the blue you see. I find digging into canon can spur ideas; a close look at it can support interpretations that are often ridiculed ("Akechi feels remorse for his actions" would like a word).
Ultimately, everything I blog about is my interpretation. I hope it's accurate and I'm glad when it speaks to people! But it's not the law. And if people are creating things that don't agree with it? Good. That's exactly how it's supposed to be.
tl;dr
Write your story. Sing your song. Tell your truth.

When I talk OOC, I'll use // as an indicator. You can ask me things as well, if you want! Just specify!
Speaking of that, specify which of them you're talking to when you send in asks, please. I'm not a mind reader. If you do that, I'm gonna end up hitting you with this:

A3! Main Story: Part 4 - Act 15: PAINFUL RE:BAKE - Episode 2: Portrait / Keiku Karashina
Tumblr media
— Anything will do. I’m just lookin’ for something that’s easy to understand.
Everything in my life is boring and tasteless. Then one day, I realized I wasn’t as sensitive as other people.
If something’s sweet, I need it to be so sweet you’d puke. I don’t care for wasabi, but I do like karashi. (1) I like everything to the extreme, whether we're talking sweet or spicy.
I have a hard time feeling anything at all. Not only taste, but everything.
I’m not good at this non-verbal communication thing, I always have to think… either about how I can communicate what I think to others… Or about figuring out what everyone means but doesn’t say. It’s a hassle, it doesn’t make sense, it pisses me off.
In your teens, you’re packed in with others your age whether you like it or not, and you’re forced to do everything in groups. It makes me feel like there’s nothing fulfilling in life.
Life’s full of things that are hard to understand.
I don’t get how people can just go on with their lives in this incomprehensible world like it’s nothing.
That’s why, I started lookin’ for easy to understand tastes… And easy to understand communication.
For example, something like–
-
Rough-looking guy: –gh
Keiku: … Comm’s done and over with.
[Phone notification blip]
Keiku: …
momo: “log in as soon as u see this!”
Keiku: ?
Iv has joined the chat Kar has joined the chat Kar: suuup shiki has joined the chat shiki: did something happen? momo: you won’t believe it, something crazy just happened! momo: idk how, but i got a famous influencer to join my troupe! shiki: that’s great news! congratulations! Iv: oooo grats Kar: who’s the influencer? momo: have you heard of ibukichi? shiki: my friends follow them Kar: i think i’ve heard of em momo: i never thought someone this famous would join! i’m shook! shiki: do you know what made them join? momo: just like me, they watched mankai company’s play and wanted to start acting! it’s like fate! momo: mankai company's tsuzuru-san also promised to write us a script if we get two more members! we’re THIS close!
Keiku: … Seriously?
momo: so, how about now? will you guys give joining the troupe another thought? Kar: naaah shiki: i’m fine with watching, but participating is another thing entirely, sorry momo: that’s what i thoughttt… momo: will you come watch if we manage to form a proper troupe and start performing then? momo: i want to meet you guys irl! Kar: nop shiki: i’m interested, but idk about meeting in person… i’ll definitely be supporting you from behind the scenes Iv: ^ thiiis Kar: gl tho
Keiku: Welp, we can't meet anyways.
Keiku: (If he ends up being too persistent, I’ll get pissed off and cut him off… Actually, I should just do that now.)
Keiku: (Texting is a chill and easy to understand communication method. It’s straightforward, with no hidden meanings.)
Keiku: (Doesn't hafta be with these guys though…)
Keiku: …
Keiku: (Well, whatever.)
[Phone ringing]
Friend A: “Wassuuup?”
Keiku: Lemme stay the night.
Friend A: “Sure thing, but are you not gonna go home again?”
Keiku: Ain’t ever goin’ back.
Friend A: “Quit lyin’.”
Keiku: (This meaningless back and forth is easy too but…)
Keiku: (... I don’t know what he’s thinkin’ from the other end of the phone, and I don’t get why he always lets me stay over, but it’s whatever.)
Keiku: (Well, I’ve found a place to crash for tonight, that’s good enough. No probs here.)
Rough-looking guy: Wait…
Keiku: ?
Rough-looking guy: Tell me your damn name…
Keiku: Oops, totally slipped my mind. TY.
Keiku: I’m… Nachi Komada of “Wolf”~!

NOTES:
(1) karashi (japanese mustard) is made from crushed mustard seeds mixed with horseradish and is much, much spicier than western mustard

Red Velvet - Chapter 11 part 1
MasterList / Akane’s profile / Last chapter here
Chapter 11 - Intervention (part 1)
EggHead: 
heya guys
have any of you seen rihito?
or heard of him idk
I’m even thinking of going after him on his job
it’s been almost three days for fuck’s sake
we didn’t even get a “hi” or something
Kelpthullu: 
Cannibal called Kanami yesterday and said he’s fine
but only because tomori and her insisted a lot, since they saw him hurt and all
other than that, nothing
GiantKiller: 
I’m getting worried
he never disappeared like that before
not in the chat, at least
Gigolo_Master: 
yeah, that's the thing
that fucker visualized the texts
I can see it
but he hasn't answered since that day
EggHead: 
man wtf
he isn't even answering DMs
only seeing them
he's never let us down 
but he's letting HIMSELF down
I think it's intervention time, guys
GiantKiller: 
I second that
I didn't want things to get to this point
But he didn't give us a choice
Gigolo_Master: 
I’m so fucking pissed rn
rihito is a lot of things, but a coward isn't one of em
seeing this dumbass running away is driving me insane
I'm about to break down his door with a flying kick
Kelpthullu: 
Oh, we’re gonna have a brawl then? Cool
Violence isn't the answer. It's a question, and the answer is always "yes" 😎
GiantKiller: 
Wow, slow down, guys
Let's not resort to that until we're sure there's no other way 
We want to carry out an intervention, not a lynching
EggHead: 
I'll agree with kaneda this time
and not because rihito's my best friend
I know him, he's one insecure mf
this is new stuff, even for him
I mean, I didn't run away when I was going through that. I was just too embarrassed to speak
maybe that's what's going on with him
or maybe he's just confused
Gigolo_Master: 
that's what's pissing me off so much
he knows we'd roast him, but just a little
and we'd help him afterwards, like we did with you
what is he so afraid of?
doesn't he trust us??
Kelpthullu: 
the thing is, this must be really new to him
just like it was to me
and all of it came to me at once!
in a matter of weeks
well, I'm down for anything you want to do
talking to him or kicking his ass, whatever it works
GiantKiller: 
Let’s try talking before anything else, please
And it’s still weird, Ohma
I mean, it was all new for Okubo too
And he accepted it pretty quickly 
I don’t know, something’s fishy 
I feel that Rihito isn’t telling us everything
EggHead: 
well...
I've had a few crushes before, so I had an idea of what's going on
Gigolo_Master: 
lol bullshit
you may have had your crushes in the past
but I'm pretty sure none of them made you run through a supermarket like a fucking lunatic
GiantKiller: 
I have to agree
you have me and a shopping cart as proof
EggHead: 
c’mon man
I was having a hard time accepting the fact lmao
Kelpthullu: 
(answering to @GiantKiller) Nyoooommm 😎
Gigolo_Master: 
LMAOOOOOOOOOO
FFS TOKITA 
you triggered the stickiest memory possible!
Kelpthullu: 
I still want to go "Nyoom" in a shopping cart
no one let me do it
EggHead: 
maybe cause you're a GROWN ASS MAN ON HIS THIRTIES who weighs 185 lbs, is 6 feet tall and has a scary, “I’m gonna murder you if you come any closer” face?
GiantKiller: 
(answering to @Kelpthullu) 🦽🦽🦽🦽🦽 
Yeah, man, Nyooom
Gigolo_Master: 
wtf kaneda
that’s a wheelchair emoji 
🤣
GiantKiller: 
It’s not my fault!
There’s no shopping cart emoji! 
EggHead: 
alright that was fun
Now let’s poke that ass 
Wait… this sounded wrong af
Kelpthullu: 
Let’s call Saw Paing 
Then we’ll poke that ass and ensure screams and chaos 😎
Gigolo_Master: 
FUCK MAN
STOP MAKING ME SCREAM IN THE MIDDLE OF MY SHIFT
EggHead: 
LMAO
man I didn't know you could be such a troll
now I know why you eat like you're about to starve
you ran away from a cage and there was a plaque warning people not to feed you lol
Kelpthullu: 
I don’t remember any of that
but it's likely, since I don't remember shit before I meet Niko
anyway, let’s focus on ichiro now
EggHead:
Yep
alright, everyone, how about some takoyaki at his place?
it’s an excuse for us to talk his ears out
and it has to be before my trip to osaka
I still have to win my public match
Kelpthullu: 
Oh yes, the one tomori is talking non stop about. 
She’s going with you, isn’t she?
It’s going to be two weeks from now, so we need to go to ichiro’s place as soon as possible. How about this weekend? 
Giant Killer: all fine with me
And It’s a great idea, Okubo!
going there with food, as a peace offering
things don’t need to resume to beating
Kelpthullu: You got me at “food”
What do I bring?
Gigolo Master: anything edible is fine
go figures what that asshole is doing rn
possible he turned that pigsty into something worse
anyway, I’m in too
Egghead: I’ll settle the rest
see ya.
Okubo leaves the group chat, and soon arrives at a private person he knew very well. He smiled as he was greeting his sweetheart, but he needed her help if he wanted this to work.
Naoh💖: 
Honey ❤️❤️❤️
I need you to do something 4 me.
Tomoh💘: 
Heeey Babe
Lemme guess
You promised cookies to your sponsor, didn’t you?
👀
Naoh💖: 
now that you mentioned…
Lmao no, no, jk
It’s other issue
Can you talk to your friend, miss akane, for me?
Tell her to not let rihito invite her anywhere this weekend
he needs to stay at home
Bc we are planning to make a surprise visit
and we don’t want that golden retriever to ran away
he’s been avoiding us, and we're pissed af about that 😠😠
Tomoh💘: 
Oh my
Rly?
why??
Did something happen?
Naoh💖: 
No
that’s the thing, nothing happened yet
since that thrift store thing, with that rug shenanigan
he won’t speak to us
I guess he got angry when we laughed at him
bc he FOR SURE has it bad for her, but he went MIA
It’s not usual for him to run away from us
himuro wants to kick his ass 
ohma wants to join in
and kaneda is holding both back
And I’m anxious here bc he didn’t even talk to me
Not even through DM, man
Tomoh💘: 
OMG
What did you say for him to act like this??
I know it’s how you guys work
But come on, you tend to go too far
Specially him…
... ok I see the problem, he looks like an hypocrite
Anyway, I’ll speak to Akane
But wait…
Did he really fall for her???
I just saw this part rn!!! 
Naoh💖: 
we didn’t do anything out of the ordinary
I swear. We didn’t even threat to punch him like we always do
He didn’t even tell us to go fuck ourselves
But yes, he is head over hells for her 
we were already sus about that, bc honey…
really, do you remember how they were treating each other last christmas party?
He even wanted to beat ohma using his RAZORS bc Kelphtullu made her SAD about losing in JD
I mean, himuro didn’t do that for his date, and he was as pissed as rihito
and then like, the guy almost screwed himself trying to get a PORN-ISH RUG
all of this, because of her.
ohma and I would do that for our own girls, but him?
If it’s not love, I don’t know what it is.
Tomoh💘: 
HOLY~
I almost screamed here at the bakery!!😍😍😍
but seriously, I was suspecting it a bit
After all that ruckus about the rug
Even Akane was all moved
Jeeeeesuuuus
And he is just pretending there’s nothing going on???
Naoh💖: 
Why do you think we are all pissed off?!
Even ohma saw that
He was all like “the guy offered premium game for his girl”
But I already got it, he understood everything 
Me and the boys are going to intercept rihito at his place.
that’s why I need you to assure he won’t go anywhere
Can you ask Akane to tell him to stay home?
She is the only one who can convince him so
Tomoh💘: 
Ok ok
I’ll call Akane and make up something
so she can’t invite him for anything
but babe
I think you don’t want me to tell her, do you?
About him being in love with her…
Naoh💖: 
I dunno, babe.
I’m worried about her not feeling the same and rejecting him if she knows
Then it’ll be our fault for not minding our business
So like, we just want to make him wake the fuck up
so HE gets his shit together and goes to talk to her
they need to have this conversation by themselves
Before the Cannibal get fed up and kick him to the curb
You know how he’s gonna whine afterwards
Okubo had no idea, but on the other side of the city, at one of the tables at the Heavy Bakery during her lunch break, Tomori looked at the screen of her phone while biting the tip of her thumb, suddenly nervous.
Damn, being the keeper of everyone's secrets sucked so much! She knew that Rihito liked Akane and vice versa, but she couldn't tell anyone else, not even her boyfriend! Why did things have to be so complicated? This was looking like a soap opera, and one she hadn't even wanted to get involved in in the first place!
Tomoh💘: 
yeah I know
alright I’ll do it
but seriously, naoh, try not to beat his ass if you can
please
I don't want you guys fighting again
Naoh💖: 
... not even a friendly brawl for, like, 5 min?
Tomoh💘: 
I’m serious, Naoya
alright, a 5 min brawl then, but only if it's really friendly
you and this need to show affection through violence, I swear
Naoh💖: 
LMAO pot, meet kettle
your friendship with Cannibal started just like that
kaneda and himuro became friends after the former BROKE THE LATER’S ARM
rihito met ohma when he broke into his shack, even before they fought in a kengan match
(in fact, 90% of tokita's friendships started this way)
AND YOU HIT THE GIRL’S FACE WITH A BASEBALL BAT
a friendship forged like this is hard to break
even more so because we saw each other's worst side already lol
Tomoh💘: 
BRO DON'T USE MY SHITTY PAST AGAINST ME
FUCK, MAN
LMAO alright, guess I deserved that
sorry for the hypocrisy
I just want my boyfriend and his friends to be on good terms with each other
Naoh💖: 
don’t worry we’ll be
but not if things keep going like this
that’s why we’re doing an intervention
so let's put the plan into action babe
ooooh yes…
if everything works out (and now I want it to, since rihito is really in love)
I'll give up on our bet, but I still want you to spend a whole month in osaka with me, please
I don't know the exact day when we can meet Gaolang, but I know he's gonna be there and I promise I'll get you his autograph. Sounds good?  
Tomoh💘: 
alright, I'll tell you when I've arranged everything with Akane
and about the bet 
are you throwing the towel cause you know I'm gonna win? 😏
LOL jk
I'd love to spend a whole month in osaka with you 💞
I'd have to give up my official PTO to make up with Kanny for it, but it'll be worth it
It'll be my first time seeing a live match of yours, I'm so excited! 🥳
and yeah, I want that autograph 💞💃
Naoh💖: 
that’s what I’m saying!
now I’ll inform the guys about our plan
later, babe 🥰
He doesn't wait for her response; he immediately goes to the group chat to talk to his friends. 
And with that, everything was settled.
He just hoped things wouldn't go south...
“Kaneeeee!”
“Hirooooo!”
They both meet with  a tight, noisy embrace, laughing and twirling around.
"Bitch, I haven't seen you in a while! I missed you," Hiro coos while they hugged, and Akane laughed.
"Sorry, honey, I haven't been in a mood for a girl's night in a while," she sighs. "A lot of stuff happened in my life and I needed a friend to take me outta my funk. Hey, Tomoh, Butch!" 
"Hey guys! Damn, I feel like I we're back in high school, when we used to go to cafeterias together," Tomori waves, all happy, already going to hug Akane "I miss those times!,"
"Eh, I don't much," Kanami gives them an embarrassed, wearing her favorite coat, a simple shirt, jeans and combat boots. "Probably because I didn't hang out with you guys much back then."
"If you had, you'd have had a lot of fun," Akane smiles, unwrapping a lollipop and putting it in her mouth. "I'm happy to see you guys, this weekend really came in handy... you're going to be away for the whole month, right, Tomo?"
"Yes, I am! I've already arranged everything with Kanny and take my PTO now," Tomori nods, smiling from ear to ear, hugging Kanami's muscular arm. "I promise I'll make it up to you, girl. But it will be a whole month in Osaka, just Naoh and I!"
"Lemme tell you, despite some regrets, your gorilla knows how to give early birthday presents!," Hiro comments with a scathing smile. "A whole month in the best hotels in the region, visiting tourist attractions, watching his matches, getting laid-"
"Hiro!"
"What, am I lying? I'm actually jealous of you!"
"Oh, you," Kanami smiles, blushing. "But yeah, it's a wonderful opportunity. I'm just a little sorry that you're taking your PTO now, it's gonna be hard to keep the bakery functioning during the summer while I'm gone..."
"Oh yeah? Are you gonna take some time off during summer?," Akane raises an eyebrow.
"It's kind of a retreat that Ohma and I agreed on. We went camping last summer for a week, and we really enjoyed the experience, so if everything goes well, we'll try to go every year."
"Girl, I won't say 'how fancy' only because you’re going to fend for food in the woods, not in the trendy places of a tourist city…," Akane laughs when Kanami blushes. "But it's the kind of thing you'd like, so go for it!," She raises a thumb and the baker smiles.
"Well, that’s where the exercise is doubled! Kana here will return with glutes that would make any girl envyous," Hiro jokes, and Tomori guarantees, "I swear I can handle it! Perhaps this would be the ideal time to reopen our discussion about hiring a third assistant cook, Kanny. "
"Well, yes. The kitchen is bigger, so there's space," she nods. "We'll think about it later. Now, we have a trash day ahead of us, and places to go. What will it be? "
"I'm down for whatever you decide, but right now I'm a little hungry," Akane says. "I'll have some snacks before taking a walk, how about you?"
"I'm in! Ever since these two took two muscle heads as their boyfriends, they have become even more neurotic about keeping in shape," Hiro comments. "I mean, Kana already was before, but now things have reached another level."
"What can I say? We have fun training together," Kanami laughs. "And the guy has a monstrous appetite, I end up trying to keep up and... well, you know, it all goes to my hips, I have to burn these calories before it happens..."
"You can't just burn all these calories in bed?"
"Well, sometimes we- HEY!," Kanami blushes a lot. "A couple can't just be twenty-four seven in bed, you know that, right? You horny bitch." 
"How can I know? I hardly even see guys kissing, Tomoh and her man are sweeter than my p-"
"I don't need to hear that!," Kanami exclaims. "I'm no saint, but that doesn't mean I like talking about these things in public!"
"And the 'public' in question is your friend group," Hiro laughs, to which Tomori just shakes her head, smiling amusedly.
"I don't even know why you're still surprised like that, Kanny. Akane is even taking it easy today, if I do say so myself, hahaha!"
"I'm not surprised, I just don't-"
"You're just uptight, that's all!," Akane puts her hands on her hips. "Ever since we formed our little group, I've been wondering how you and that hunk fuck, and I don't hear a peep from you. You're acting like you're in a cult or something..."
"What's the problem with kissing and not telling, you loudmouth?!"
"The problem is when you keep secrets and I can't even fantasize…"
"You can take your eyes off my man, you fucking minx!"
The two stare at each other, one furiously, the other calmly. When Tomori and Hiro tough they were going to fight, Akane says:
"You’re staring at me too much, Butch. We can go get a room if you want…"
Kanami walks away, raising her arms in frustration. "Arrgh!"
Akane laughs loudly "I love you too, my favorite dyke!," she licks the lollipop coquettishly.
Tomori and Hiro laugh, more relieved. It was good to know that they wouldn't have to pull these two apart during a potential fight. Both of them would definitely get their asses beaten.
"Good gracious, Akane, you’re braver than half the idiots I know," Hiro begins, shaking his head. "To be able to stand up to our Amazon like that…"
"Who doesn’t she stand up to? I had to see it at school, her being all sarcastic with the student inspector when he threatened to give her detention," Tomori laughs again.
"C'mon, I'm very well behaved now," - Akane laughs. "I was a devil. But then life comes back to bite us in the butt, and we sort ourselves out," She sighs. "Yes, Tomori... how-"
"Yeah, we do it pretty often, but it's not like it's every day," Kanami says suddenly, blushing, but still gathering courage. 
Akane turns like a sunflower to her friend, looking very interested.
"Hmmm… really? And why?"
"I told you, a couple can't be twenty-four seven in bed," She rolls her eyes. "And Ohma also doesn't have the biggest sex drive, but he’s always down for it when I'm in the mood. But like, there are special occasions when he practically throws me over his shoulder and...," She seems incapable of finishing the sentence, mortified. "Yeah, it's always more intense on those days. Like after one of his matches."
"Ah, so he's the quiet type? That's cute," She smiles. "But does he fuck you properly?"
"What kind of question is that?," She grits her teeth, terribly embarrassed, but still answers, "Of course! Even more so because he likes… uh… licking… more than being licked. It's kinda odd, but it is what it is."
Akane gasps loudly. "Oh my God... he's a professional mango eater, on top of it all?! May God and Daddy Satan bless this woman, 'cause she won the fucking lottery!," she puts her hands together in prayer and bows. "GOD BE PRAISED!"
Hiro listens to everything, absolutely enchanted. "Are you fucking kidding me?! When I ask for details you get all skittish, but when Akane asks, you let your tongue loose? I'm offended!," He puts a hand on his chest in theatrical indignation, but the sparkle in his eyes was unmistakable. "But lord, this is quite the information! You're lucky as hell!"
"Guys, tone it down…," Tomori hisses, a little red in the face, but still giggling. Kanami shuts her mouth, shrugging her broad shoulders, very red "But yeah, Kanny is one lucky gal, hahaha. Both because of the treatment she receives and because her boyfriend is now the bakery's number one customer."
"That's real love right there," Akane smiles more. "And what about you, Doll? Now I want to hear from you. How can you handle that bald gorilla without turning into a pancake or without you bending like two pretzels?"
Tomori, who was still laughing, chokes a little on her own saliva, to which Hiro smiles even more devilishly.
"I was dying to ask the same question! Are you gonna tell me you can only ride that Breton cowgirl style?"
"Shut up, Hiro!," She hisses. And then she adds, her cheeks flushed and a little swollen, "And he likes it, okay? He loves it, actually. And with me lying on my stomach it's just as good..."
"Lazy dog? Now we're talking!," He shrieks between laughs. Kanami blushes, rolling her eyes.
"Oooh, I still need to try that one with Rihito," Akane declares excitedly. "I'll test it later."
"This is one of our favorites…," Kana speaks softly. But the Panther had keen hearing.
"Niiice! Tell me he bites your neck, please!," She grabs the other's arm, her eyes shining. "That's all I need to complete my fantasy, please!"
Kanami wanted to bury her face on the ground, blushing profusely. It was enough for Akane.
"Oh my Goood," she smiles a lot. "That's food for my soul. Hiro, is this enough fantasy for you too now?!
"Enough for the whole month, honey. Believe me, I have a lot of fun fantasizing about that clan of himbos," He jokes with a sharp smile. "Except with Kana's and Tomori's because I'm not a backstabber, but you get the picture."
"Stop fantasizing about my boyfriend! I don't fantasize about your blonde idiot!," Kanami exclaims, cowering. Akane blinks, looking at her.
"I mean, if he were mine," Akane laughs loudly, waving her hand. "He's a wordly man, I only receive him as a visitor...," her voice drops, but then gets loud again. "But just for your information, the guy's down for almost everything. And he also know some moves that drive me up the wall..."
Hiro sees when Tomori's expression changes, for a measly second, but enough for him to be able to identify the discomfort there. He arches an eyebrow before turning to Akane.
"Rihito, huh? The modern caveman who threw a fit about creating a measly Instagram profile? I always thought he just had bravado, but when it was time to go to Pound Town, he thrusted about three times, rolled over and started snoring...," He comments nonchalantly.
"Not even close!," Akane smiles, vehemently denying it with gestures of her hand. "Too bad he doesn't like 'sword fighting', Hiro, otherwise I would highly recommend him to you. When he's in the afterglow, he's super affectionate, like a huge teddy bear... he was a little clumsy at first, but he just needed a few tips from a professional like me. Now he's become The Hot Blonde, I can guarantee that. 
"He seems more confident to me," Kanami sighs. "And he stopped being inconvenient at the Bakery. He's still noisy, but at least I don't have to threaten to kick him out."
"Indeed. He never disturbed other customers or the new waitresses again. Girl, you are a savior!," Hiro smiles. "You turned a fuckboy into a respectable fuck-buddy!"
"You’re welcome… but you know what I like most…?," Akane smiles too, more tenderly this time. "He was the one who asked me to teach him. I had punched down his pride really badly, but he just came and asked me what he was doing wrong. Damn, he didn't even get mad at me. That…that was really mature of him. A breath of fresh air, I must say…"
"Wow. I really didn't expect that," Kanami blinks. "Our advices really penetrated that thick skull, apparently...," She looks at Tomori and Hiro.
"He asked you to teach him? Serious?," Tomori blinks, pretending to be surprised. "I had no idea he had even heard us, damn... I've known him for less than a year and I already know he's a prideful bastard..."
"Nothing like your classic strategy to humble guys like that," Hiro claps discreetly for Alane, smiling scathingly. "And it brought out his cute side too, because apparently even you developed a soft spot for that big, scruffy dog."
"There's no better words to describe him," She points to Hiro. "A big, lively, needy and cute golden retriever. All he needed was training and he became the best dog ever. Although there are times when he's more like a leopard, like me... welp, details...," She laughs coquettishly, pushing Hiro with her hip.
Hiro laughs too, shaking his head. "Birds of a feather, huh, Sekihyo. Not in terms of intelligence, because that one is dumb as hell, but in terms of naughtiness, you're evenly matched, hehe."
"And they're both great friends to the people around them too. There was no way she couldn't relate to him," Tomori gives Akane a cute smile.
"Ownnn... and you found the cute gorilla who takes you on trips to watch the fights you like so much...," She squeezes her friend's cheeks.
"So you admit that you like him?," Kanami drops the bomb.
Akane stops right in the act of kissing Tomori's forehead, and it's her turn to blush profusely and face the floor. Kanami smiles with a very peculiar mischief of hers.
"Gotcha…," she laughs devilishly.
Hiro's eyes widen a little, but he doesn't look exactly surprised. 
"Girl, I was kind of suspecting it already, but to see it confirmed like this…"
Tomori just sighs.
"Eh, I kept my promise, Kane. They found out by themselves…"
"‘Wait, did you already know then?"
"I promised I wouldn’t tell, c'mon!"
"I was suspicious since the thrift store incident," Kanami raises an eyebrow. "And Ohma told me too, which only confirmed it."
"Well, I've been told. you and that sea monster of yours are cut from the same cloth, scary when you want to be...," Akane tries to say. "And now you've become Yakuza members too? Do you also having matching tattos!?"
"Only if it's with the same guy who tattooed your leopard prints," Hiro jokes. "No, but seriously, honey... how? You were always the one who made others fall for you, not the other way around."
Akane sighs, still blushing. "I don't know... I just know that he... it's cliché, but he just surprised me, and he broke down all my walls, one by one," she gestures a little. "First, he came back after I used The Strategy and he didn't curse me, like everyone else did before. Two, an ex of mine showed up and he practically dismantled him with one punch," She shakes her head. "Then he asked for tips on how to be a better lover, and he started treating me like a friend on the same level as me and Tomori," She nods at her friend. "Then after that he arrived at my place and was over the fucking moon when I bought him some sweatpants. Sweatpants! That I bought just so he could wear something when he went to crash at my place. Then at New Year's, he called me to wish me happy holidays, when I was at home alone... and now... he got into a fight in a thrift store to get me rug! Tell me, how was I supposed to not fall for him?" 
"Wow," Kanami blinks. "Anyone who doesn’t know this side of him will definitely bite their tongue…"
"I… I kind of knew, actually," Tomori suddenly comments. "Do you remember, Akane, when Naoh messed up really badly and ruined our first date? Remember how furious with him I was? Well, Rihito was the one who showed up at my doorstep, under a downpour, admitted that he was partly to blame for what happened and asked me to give his friend a second chance. He almost kneeled down and begged with his forehead touching the ground…"
"Don't even remind me of that shit, my fist is still itching to hit his face again," Kanami snorts. "Okubo and Lihito never messed with me again."
"Yeah, it's just like him to do such a thing," Akane smiles. "But still, I didn't stop being me just because of him, I just... well, I'm just opening up a little..."
"Relax, Akane," Kana hugs her shoulder. "None of us have. And Hiro is here to prove it, right?"
"For sure! You're still the same crazy chicks that I love," Hiro declares, making a heart with his hands and making them laugh "You're never gonna change because of a man, if you're confident enough in yourself, that is. If they're good, they're just enough to add to your life."
"Yeah...," Tomori nods fondly. "And Naoh has already redeemed himself, Kanny, c'mon. Your punch pushed him to the right track, it even took him a while to find the courage to drink when we're together. Even Rihito started to behave more."
"Hnf," the baker smiles a little. "Oh, there’s the snack bar. It's nice to have a break from cooking... c'mon, let's eat and gossip about everything and everyone."
"I'm in!," Akane was returning to her normal self, hugging the other three of them. "Let's rock and roll!"
"I'll rock your shit if you keep screaming like that..."
"Wow, Butch, that sounds kinda hot..."
"Shut up!" 
And after that, all they could do was laugh loudly.

if you've got a half-finished ask in your inbox Tumblr bugged out while I was writing this a notable thing 179 noticed when they were going through the APHO 1 Audio Files is that when reciting a part of Duino Elegies,
Tumblr media
Void Archives replaces the word that is used in official translations of The First Elegy to refer to angels, "天使", with "天上之人", which he uses to refer to Sky People; the Sky People's name is interesting as well, 179 says: "the "sky people" in Chinese is "天上之人“, which is more "people of the sky", actually 天上 literally means above the sky, which in some instances can refer to heavenly/celestial", the way HSR translates it as "the ones from above" is more accurate according to them now for the actual Audio Files, of which I also have recordings of the full things, in English and Chinese (I embeded the links in this and the previous ask so if Tumblr fucked that up I can send them separately) original text: "(the happiness I am feeling in this moment) is the happiness of absolute freedom of the mind"
Tumblr media
original text: "Excellent. I'm getting tired of talking to myself already."
Tumblr media
original text: "I extended my sincere invitation, please do not ignore it."
Tumblr media
an interesting note is that 179 says that VA tends to come off as more assertive in the Chinese text than how it's translated into English officially, as you can see an example of above original text: "I doubt you'd say no"
Tumblr media
that's all for now! do share your thoughts, I like discussing language stuff and game lore, so this is a 2-in-1 deal for me also if you have anything from the Honkai franchise you want translated from Chinese to English, you can send them my way and I'll pass them over to my friend! we're both pretty busy with school though so it might take a bit to get back to you
Tumblr media
YUP. YUP!!! YUP!!! I love this one. I’ve always thought Void Archives basically talking to themselves like this had me like, boy we need to get you some therapy. To know they actually use the word insane makes the sun shine into my room.
My favorite part about the audio files is when they just sigh sadly once they realize that trying to make conversation with these aliens is useless. 500 years in captivity with a guy who won’t listen to you, then once you get out no one wants to listen to you either… ptoeey. So many stories to tell, no one who will listen. I’d go insane too. I’ve always liked to imagine them talking Welt’s ear off once they repair their relationship after the train incident. I especially like this panel where he interrupts them as they’re praising themselves, and they’re so dumbfounded:
Tumblr media
They just want to chat! They want to be acknowledged!!!
Tumblr media
We get it Void Archives. You’re gay

been off social media for a while cause work and life and being broker than usual have just been a lot but now I'm back to emopost and be dramatic as always.
I keep working to keep my friendgroup together, it really feels like it's just me and one other friend putting in that effort and even then her anxiety keeps her from reaching out some of the time so a lot of it really is me working to get us together for game night and keeping the groupchat going, and we keep having friends drop out of the group
There were a couple like two or so years ago that I don't wanna talk about, it's mostly my fault
One who just stopped talking to me specifically but hangs out with the others still and I have no idea what's going on nor do the others, and I've tried to reach out and get a feel for if we're still friends and I truly have no read on the situation I'm just baffled
One who was one of my lifelong best friends who like a year ago broke up her girlfriend (my other best friend in the group) and got a bunch of new friends and stopped talking to all us out of the blue and left the dnd campaign which her ex was not even in with barely a word and now just recently she told another friend who I guess she's still talking to that she's feeling "abandoned by the group" even though she never even replied to the last text I sent and it really seemed by the messy way she broke up with the first friend that she was kind of trying to burn bridges anyway so I don't fucking know what to do with that!
And a couple other friends who have just been distant and unreliable for a while which I get, they have lives outside the friend group and even closer friends in another group, it's fine, I just wish getting them to communicate when I'm trying to schedule my goddamn 30th birthday party wasn't like herding cats (especially considering the party was literally going to be 5 people with them included, and ended up just being 3 of us in the end)
And now today we got another very close friend who's been busier and busier which again I get and she hasn't been able to make game nights which I get and she just said tonight that she definitively won't be able to make future game nights or other hangouts because things are still getting busier which I get and then without saying she's leaving just dropped out of the server (which is a small friend group server of like 6 people now) and when I messaged her asking if she was okay she said yes and said we should stay in touch and I'm like that's the whole reason why the server is there it's literally there so we can keep in touch, but whatever I'm not getting passive aggressive about it, I'm being an adult
But inside I'm frankly upset with her and the others (not the last friend for having to leave because at least her reasons aren't immature bs, but for just being out of the blue and not really saying anything or giving us a chance to see her off or respond at all). I know I have two rocks of friends who genuinely want to be around me and each other and they don't create a bunch of drama, and they do occasionally initiate. But damn it really feels like I'm just straining to keep this friend group together and it isn't even working. And I'm bad at scheduling things, I'm bad at keeping up obligations, the fact that it's falling on me means it is *dire*, but I'm doing what I can and it's still not enough! I know it's not fair on them or myself to compare how the group is now to when we were younger and all unemployed, or during lockdown when we were all furloughed and could just be in chat all the time. But I still feel like it shouldn't be this hard! If I don't schedule something, if I don't initiate, we practically never see each other! It's just disheartening and I just feel like the collapse of the entire friend group is inevitable. I'm gonna lose the two really close friends I have left, and I'm gonna miss them and be distraught about it (and rationally I know they'd miss me too but my brain is telling me they wouldn't), and I guess the one silver lining in that scenario is there'd be almost nothing stopping me from just moving to a bigger city and starting over which honestly! I've been tempted to do anyway, I've been getting the destructive urge to just throw a torch onto my current life and move to Chicago or NY or smth. Stop worrying about if the group will or won't collapse and just let it you know? But gfdi I'm being strong and *trying* to hold onto the friends I still have

not to be annoying mentioning the same fucking friendship but i actually feel like my soul is withering away not seeing my friend and i just feel so confused abt what is going thru her head and if my friendship even means that much to her. like i feel crazy cuz she'll say we're best friends and how close she feels to me talks abt all the things she wants to do with me in the future like go on road trips and travel to other countries etc but then she just kinda disappears for 2-3 months at a time and barely responds to my texts. and it feels so lonely cuz we went to high school together and used to be so close seeing each other every day. and at first i tried to rationalize that this is just what adult relationships are like and scheduling things & affording things can be hard but i'm like we really can't even hang out or video chat once a month?? is once a month asking for too much??? i don't want to come across as all woe is me cuz maybe i have some problem that i am not realizing but i just hate that i wind up getting into "best" friendships with ppl who tell me these things abt how close we are & that they wanna be friends forever but then i always end up wanting more than them and feel like a fucking dumbass to the point of tears. when it feels like i'm just asking for scraps. how do people navigate friendships anymore??? i feel insane not knowing if i'm the problem!!!
